Bio
Alex McGillivray
Adura is one of the most self-motivated, knowledgeable, creative, kind, and dedicated staff I've had the pleasure of working with. As her manager, I witnessed her share these skills with our team on a daily basis. Her strong work ethic and social media expertise helped streamline and grow our organization's online presence through content creation and the development of a media kit. In particular, she excels at creating educational content that is easy to understand and accessible for all. Adura is also one of the most genuine people I have ever met, which made it easy to learn from and collaborate with her. It was truly an honour to work with her and it is my pleasure to recommend that any workplace would be extremely lucky to have her talents and energy as part of their team.
