Rosie Walsh

Content Marketing Executive

Rosie graduated in Psychology from the University of Liverpool and worked as a specialist coffee barista before studying for qualifications in digital marketing. In her spare time, she also created content for her Etsy business selling handmade woven art for several years before joining us.

Rosie is behind all things content at Wild in Art, from our socials to our website and newsletters, as well as supporting the wider marketing team and event partners.

Outside of work, Rosie is an avid knitter and always has a new project on the go – from jumpers to scarves and even miniature knitted frogs!
