A Bit About Eden
Eden is a young, multidisciplinary creative hailing from the quaint English town of Guildford. They have a mind for innovation and an eye for flair. After graduating with a first class honours in Comparative Literature BA from King's College London in 2022, they began working on their dream of being their own boss, while helping businesses and other creatives to showcase themselves through the power of social media. Hence came Flying Papaya.
Eden grew up while social media gradually became the powerhouse it is today, so they have an intrinsic understanding of the workings of such platforms that is unique to their generation. They've been working within the world of social media management since 2020 and have worked with a range of diverse clients - from hospitality to the entertainment industry.
