Yasmim Pessoa - Digital Engagement Officer
I work as part of HCWH Europe’s communications team, ensuring that the organisation's branding and visual content is consistent across platforms, growing the organisation’s digital reach and engagement. I also manage HCWH Europe’s social media accounts and am responsible for the development and delivery of the social media strategy.
Before joining HCWH Europe, I worked as a Communications Assistant at a Brussels-based nonprofit, where I was responsible for the organisation's websites and social media. Prior to settling in Belgium, I worked for two years as a Digital Content Manager in Brazil. During my undergraduate studies, I completed internships at a toy museum in Brooklyn and a language portal in Hamburg.
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Journalism from the Universidade Federal de Goiás, and, as part of my studies, I completed a one-year mobility programme at the University of Florida. An Erasmus+ scholarship brought me to Europe, allowing me to complete a two-year MA degree in Digital Communication Leadership.
In my free time, I enjoy vegan food and sweets and exploring the different restaurants, cafés and patisseries in Brussels. I have a special interest in performing arts, and I take dance classes from time to time. I also enjoy doing yoga at home, as it allows me to relax and exercise at the same time.
