I worked with Daniel for years, and I have to say that he is one of the most capable people that I have ever met. He is very low maintenance and easy going, and the quality of his work was always outstanding.

Nov 2016 - Jul 2019
Kino Siska is the premiere concert and event venue in Slovenia, with more than 300 events with over 100,000 visitors a year. I was in charge of: * Promotion of the centre's events (primarily concerts, exhibitions, theatre shows and dance shows) online through social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TripAdvisor) and advertising platforms (Facebook Ads, Google Ads); * Management of all social media channels; * The Kino Siska website; * Creating of visual content, coordination of campaigns with outside partners, communication with customers; * From September 2018, I was also a member of the Steering Committee of the Liveurope project. Though my position at Kino Siska was part of the PR department, I held sole responsibility when it came to digital matters. Due to the nature of the live music business, the work required flexibility and adaptability, constant availability, understanding and adapting to different target audiences, adjusting general sales strategies to the specificities of the local market, and staying on top of current trends. During my time at Kino Siska, my innovative approaches to social media and online communications resulted in not just growth of the usual KPIs, such as tripling the number of Facebook followers, more than quadrupling the number of Instagram followers, spiking engagement rates, and increased ticket sales, but also in Kino Siska becoming an online household name on the local market.

Contracted for a project lasting two months, I was a member of a team tasked with evaluating linguistic data, recruiting and recording speech sample volunteers, and evaluating the collected recordings. I was required to annotate a large volume of data according to certain guidelines and spot, label and correct lexical errors when necessary, as well as formulate language-specific conventions to serve as guidelines for the work of the entire team. I was also required to handle the logistics regarding the recruitment of volunteers, handle related documentation and ensure the samples were collected in suitable conditions. With my frequently commended cooperation, the project was finished successfully and on time, with several project phases finishing ahead of schedule. Show less
