PORTFOLIO
pvondoersten@gmail.com
Hi! I’m Paige, a social media specialist based in Utah. I was raised in Austin, Texas and will always claim it as my home, because as most people know Texas pride runs deep.
I’ve been working in social media for a couple years at James & Joan Coffee Co (also known as JJ’s). Originally studying Psychology, I am now majoring in Communications with a minor in Psych.
My work is constantly evolving and changing as I do, but please enjoy some of my favorites campaigns and personal projects featured on my site!

Social media campaigns for jj's coffee
Latest Project
JJ’s has their second anniversary so I planned and executed a shoot with the owners kids for the social media content to celebrate the birthday!
I am extremely grateful to gain experience through trial and error at my current job. This place is like a second family to me and has allowed me to take creative leaps with trust.
While I know this isn’t always the case, I never take for granted the relationships I get to make with past and current coworkers/employers. I am always growing and learning from those in my life and I wouldn’t want it any other way<3
ABOUT ME
-
Fashion is a huge passion of mine that is constantly evolving. I don’t go very often without a trip to the thrift store and especially love making it a part f any trip to a new place. Clothing can tell so much about a town and it’s people. I love the confidence it brings me to dress in a new and exciting way.
I’ve been riding horses since I was eight years old and have always been a huge animal lover. No matter what’s happening in my life, being around animal in nature will always bring me a special kind of comfort.
Another big passion of mine is decorating and staging anything and everything, from my home to a quick photoshoot. I take pride in having an eye for the little things. There is so much beauty in what we don’t see and I love any opportunity to bring it to light.

I have worked in customer service since I was 15 years old and truly do love it. From working on a ranch taking out trail rides, to a barista helping a line out the door, I value every customer and their experiences.
While I'm not sure I want to calculate how many hours I've spent on TikTok, building my expertise, I love finding new trends and connecting to the community of the app. In my time as a barista, I caught a bug for the social media marketing sides of things and have grown a TikTok for the business from 1 follower (my personal page) to over 5k with numerous viral videos. Building a following for a coffeeshop has been an amazing learning opportunity as I work to create "trendy" videos with a mix of coffee related content as well.
