Bio
Zoë Modlin
Edith's energy, attitude and grit are unparalleled. Edith is a powerhouse Marketing Manager with passionate curiosity, clear vision and understanding of the bigger picture. Working in her presence has been inspiring to say the least. She never settles for less than exceptional, evident in the way she runs her team, projects and the impact she has had at both Vicinity Media and Location Bank. Edith turns every task to gold! A true gem of a person, and an invaluable addition to an organisation.

Edith is perhaps the most unfiltered, charismatic, and authentic human being I've ever had the pleasure to work with. Her dedication to cause and capacity for unwavering conviction is matched only by her ability to show the most profound sense of kindness and care possible. She is an absolute gem to be around. Always vibrant and boisterous, she injects vitality into every room that she steps into. Her aura and laughter express a 'Joie de vivre' so infectious and undeniable, that you find yourself wanting to engage her on even the most mundane of topics just to experience it firsthand. Edith is strong-minded, and not always [if ever] easily persuaded. However once she's provided adequate information for a given position, she almost immediately becomes its chief supporter and will ceaselessly defend it. She is an amazingly quick study and is not afraid to doggedly pursue the investigation of a concept until she understands as well [if not better] than its originator Her greatest power in my opinion is how her honesty has the uncanny power to endear her to you and make you want to engage her to your fullest capability. She possesses an innate ability to make the team she works with, feel and behave as if they are better than they thought they were.
