About Me

The person behind
the strategy

Hey, I'm Mia Paffey, a Brit based in Denver, Colorado. I've spent the last 7 years working across social media, content creation, and production, and I genuinely love the variety.

I work closely with clients to build their online presence, whether that's developing a content strategy, managing their channels, creating content, or executing a shoot from brief to delivery. I care about doing exciting work - the kind that looks great, feels right for the brand and actually gets results!
