SPEAKER BIO: Cassie Roma | Head of Content Marketing @ The Warehouse Group

A San Diego girl transplanted in Auckland, New Zealand, I’ve got my feet firmly planted in two hemispheres.

As a born creative with my head firmly in the clouds – I’m most at home playing the role of storyteller, public speaker, writer, media strategist and photographer. In fact, I love nothing more than connecting with people and places. And, in doing so, delving into the stories and experiences that both bind us as human beings, and allow us to stand out as individuals. Cheesy, but true.

By day I get my kicks as a Head of Content for some of New Zealand’s most beloved brands – working alongside innovative, creative, and kind people to help brands & influencers find their own unique voice. And, in doing so, marrying geekery, content strategies, & creativity to create memorable moments & strong engagement in an omni-channel world.

I’m also a keynote and public speaker. I am blessed to have had the opportunity to share my thoughts, experiences, & insights in many countries across around the world. Some highlights include VidCon, Social Media Marketing World, NZFW, Simpliflying, and New Zealand’s own Digital Day Out.
