About me

My Values

I’m Avril. The face, founder or CEO behind SMIJ Marketing & Media.

As you all know, this doesn’t happen overnight. I have had lots of questions already about how this came about. Simply put, I want to be the best version of myself around my beautiful son and be there for my family.

I was always told I was the social butterfly of the family, the extrovert, the person who goes against the grain in life. If you know me, this is all true.

Well, I am starting my own business. I never thought I would say this. I still can’t believe it. I have worked hard to get here. I am happy and so passionate about marketing and social media.

I have learned so much in my previous jobs, met so many amazing people, and I can’t wait to apply it all here.
So let’s start building your Instagram business accounts.

Thank you for being here. The hustle will be real, but I will happily take you along for the ride. I can’t wait to share everything with you. I am still learning, a little scared, but even more excited.

Cheers to day one! I appreciate all the positive messages, love and support.

Last but certainly not least, a thank you to those who have helped me achieve this. I will never forget your guidance, wisdom and support.
