I AM
Camellia Yang
A lifelong learner and content creator
I consider myself as a creator. To me, the most important thing is how many useful things I create, whether articles, podcasts, campaigns, talks, or anything else.
Being in marketing and communications industry for more than a decade, I familiar with both western and Chinese business cultures which can give multinational corporations a distinct advantage in opening and growing their international market. I specialise in developing marketing and communication strategy and PR campaigns to attract and engage with customers.
I found Y Media Limited in New Zealand since 2017. The purpose of my company is to provide content marketing, multimedia productions and business solution services to whom may would like to target Chinese speaking customers.
I have been interested in writing since I was very young, publishing my first fiction novel when I was in primary school called A Ghost at the Attic. In 2004, I became a blogger. Nowadays, I share my experiences, learnings and point of views on variety of channels such as my blog, WeChat, Zhihu, Weibo and Podcast.
