02 / About Me

Strategy meets creativity.

I'm Shazil — a freelance digital marketer and SEO specialist based in Kannur, Kerala. I work across SEO, social media, content strategy and short-form video, and I'm certified in Google Ads and Meta Ads. Everything I know was built through real client work: an internship at QuadCubes, training at CDA Academy, and paid experience shooting weddings and events.

My own brand, @shazill.co, is the proving ground — every strategy, edit and post here is one I'd run for a client.
