About

Hi, I'm Izzy.

I'm a content and lifestyle creator and personal brand strategist based in New York City. I post as @izzyalbanese on TikTok and Instagram, and I've worked across beauty, hospitality and lifestyle brands.

I started as Marketing Manager for a hospitality group in Dallas from 2022 to 2024, running the social accounts for several of its restaurants. Since then I've built my own audience and helped other people grow theirs, so I bring both a creator's and a marketer's view to your brand.

How it works

Three steps

  1. 1

    Talk about your goals

    We start with a conversation about who you are, who you want to reach and where your content is today.

  2. 2

    Agree on the scope

    We decide together what I'll handle, from strategy only to full content support, so expectations are clear.

  3. 3

    Create the strategy and content

    I build the plan and the content with you, keeping your voice at the center of every post.
