ABOUT ZAKIA RAFIQI

I’m a communications specialist who believes in storytelling’s ability to bridge divides, spark dialogue, and drive change. At Young Leaders for Active Citizenship (YLAC) & The Quantum Hub, I lead social media and digital campaigns that amplify civic education and advocacy. I design and manage Google Search, Performance Max, Meta, and LinkedIn campaigns, shaping creatives and copy that connect with diverse audiences. My work spans producing long-form advocacy videos, optimizing web content for better reach, and collaborating with external stakeholders to ensure impact and alignment. Beyond campaign management, I personally create a wide range of digital and offline assets, social media creatives, banners, posters, standees, and multimedia products, ensuring cohesive visual storytelling across every channel. I develop social-first concepts, adapt designs for multiple formats, and maintain brand consistency while delivering high-quality, audience-centric creative work. I also collaborate with multiple teams, contributing both creative direction and hands-on execution to build campaigns that are visually compelling and strategically effective. With a background in multimedia production, media relations, and strategic communication, I excel at translating complex ideas into impactful visual and written narratives. I believe that when combined with the right digital tools, storytelling transcends sociopolitical barriers and drives meaningful change. Always eager to collaborate and explore innovative ways to amplify voices and ideas. Let’s connect!Portfolio: https://bit.ly/4aGowRf
