Elise West

I specialize in online marketing strategy, SEO and SEM, thereby expanding product exposure and client base. I manage a UX team (5 - 10 people) to improve the usability, content and aesthetic appeal of the web sites, in order to maintain potential clients on the web pages. My current clients include corporate event agencies, nautical enterprises, graphic design studios and e-commerce companies.

I developed and implemented the sales and marketing strategy, including the website design, content, SEO and SEM, leading to a number one result on the Google search engine. I joined Barcelona Wedding at its starting point and accelerated the growth of the business from three to fifty weddings a year. Overseeing multinational weddings, with my team of event organisers, I developed and cultivated key relationships with preferred suppliers in Barcelona and Catalunya.

This role involved developing sales and marketing strategies and the promotion of our web based electronic trading system, aimed at international financial trade fairs. Software projects included development of the product, an interactive web interface to allow electronic trading for Investment Managers and brokers.

This was a software engineering and project management role, developing 3-D graphical simulations in a technical team of 4 people. Programmed in C++ using Microsoft Visual Studio, we created physically and visually realistic simulations of laser guided missiles hitting a target, with a user-controlled joystick.
