Beyond education, Amya got her start in the Marketing field working as a Data Marketing Analyst for a fortune 500 global consultant leader. Almost simultaneously, her talent for elevating businesses and brands was noticed outside of the office. She then decided to independently develop her own clients to increase their audiences through strategic brand development, content management, and brand photography and that’s when AZ Is Media, LLC was born! Amya's experience encompasses spearheading events, managing professional social media accounts, and building creative, strategic messaging to grow businesses and social influencer profiles while elevating engagement with their online communities.
Amya Zhanelle launched AZ Is Media as a resource for businesses and social media influencers who desire increased brand recognition through social media marketing and photography. Amya understands the importance of effective brand representation. Developing interesting brand content that businesses and influencers are proud to share and their audiences gravitate towards is a part of her calling, and she is answering.
As Oprah Winfrey said, "
... each of us has a personal calling that’s as unique as a fingerprint. The best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you. ”
