Jennifer Fu

Marketing Specialist @ Arc & Codementor

I'm a bilingual Taiwanese-American Marketing Specialist in the software industry. I'm experienced in search engine, content, email, brand, influencer, and product marketing for both B2B and B2C products.

I've worked as a recruiter, product manager, UX designer, and marketer, all in the software industry, to get a good grasp of the industry. I decided to focus on marketing because it's the most multifaceted field and it keeps me on my toes. I love all things marketing-related, but I'm especially passionate about content and SEO.
