Christina Watkins Poems
Christina Watkins is a Canadian Poet living in Victoria, B.C. She needed a new website and social media marketing for herself and her book, ‘Sky and Earth Cielo Y Tierra’.
It’s not easy creating yourself as a brand. You need the right digital presence and continuity of brand across all channels. SEO & SEM is also part of this project. Working on this website, digital ads, and social media channels has been a delight.

ABOUT ME
Over 10 years ago, I decided I needed a website and I wanted to do it myself. I enrolled in a Web Design & Development Certificate at Humber College. I went on to build my website (and many others!), but my next challenge was learning Digital Marketing. I could build it, but would they come?
My next growth opportunity came in custom software. I used my design & front-end development skills to develop web applications and mobile apps. I learned wireframing, UX, the .NET environment, and worked in a team matrix with business analysts, project managers, quality assurance testers, and developers.
Being a designer & front-end developer for custom software products led to my next new thing: software products. Not only was I creating the UI/UX, but I was also now in charge of marketing the products. Content marketing, lead generation, email campaigns, and the use of analytics to identify and correct the pain points of the customer journey is my current joie de vivre.
My current role as a Marketing & Design Manager has been my favorite. I participate in business planning, budgeting, strategizing, and implementing marketing activities to reach organizational objectives. I manage a diverse team of digital marketers from co-ops to seasoned professionals.
I’ve taken on managing the marketing of multiple lines of business in both the B2B and B2C spaces. In order to manage all of this, I rely on automation tools, data insights for decision-making, and the expertise of my team.
