Hello everyone!

 

Super excited to meet you all! 🌟

 

My name is Aisha and I am based in Atlanta, Georgia! I am an Email Nurture Program Specialist at Jamf Software, responsible for 400+ emails for my organization! I also didn't have much marketing experience prior to this role, and had no Marketo experience prior to this role but I had a background in Sales and Customer Success so I am able to understand the customer journey and implement that into this role.

 

Super excited to meet and learn with you all! Connect with me on Linkedin!
