Side hustle

In 2019, I co-founded the first Asian food truck called Wok Bar in my hometown. I managed the branding and marketing material(logo, menu, packaging, photoshoots, social media, influencers, boosting). I maintained SM growth, and ensured awareness, reach, sales increase and brand recognition. Through hard work, Wok Bar withstood tough economic times and the global pandemic. Today, it is still operating with exceptional standards of quality and taste.
