Background

About Deja Gooljar

At a young age, I learned the importance of empathy, hard work, and helping others—values that have shaped both my personal and professional life. I’ve always thrived in environments that offer growth, creative expression, and meaningful collaboration. My journey began with a love for great food and genuine conversation, which naturally led me to the hospitality industry. Over a decade, I held roles from host to manager, gaining a deep appreciation for creating memorable experiences and connecting with people from all walks of life. Perfecting moments for others became second nature—and it’s a part of me that continues to guide my work. Driven by a desire to blend my passion for people with my creativity, I transitioned into the world of marketing and events. With a personal background in art, drawing, and design, I found a home in digital marketing—first as a Social Media Manager, and now as a Marketing & Events Coordinator. This evolution has allowed me to stay true to what I love: connection and creating experiences that leave lasting impressions. Through it all, I’ve built a versatile skill set that includes customer service, team leadership, project management, data analysis, content design, and more. My foundation in hospitality gave me empathy and attentiveness. My experience in marketing gave me the tools to amplify stories. And together, they’ve equipped me to thrive in roles that demand both heart and hustle.
