I am a global and passionate American woman who recently completed a Master's Degree in Political and Ethnic Conflict Resolution at King's College London. I worked as a writer for a few years then recently got accepted to do a PHD at Walden University to study education as I currently teach English as a Second Language. I have studied at the Arabic Language Flagship schools, the University of Maryland near the U.S. capital, and the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom.
Through my extensive experience in higher education, I have acquired Arabic language skills, by writing on various topics relating to recent global news, as well as giving presentations through public speaking. I have participated in mediations as well, where I have been able to use my language skills and regional knowledge focusing on, the United States, Western Europe, the Middle East, East Asia, and South America.
My focal points are teaching English, content writing, analysis of research, article writing, journalism based writing, academic writing, high level overviews, briefings, summaries, editing, and proofreading.
I have worked for clients operating in different sectors, such as cybersecurity, open-source intelligence, strategic communications, and advocacy. I produced research briefings in both English and Arabic, generated insights using open-source intelligence research methods, and advised clients on social media strategy.

Prior to my freelance career, I was involved in extracurriculars and internships. In the cybersecurity area, I have gained experience in extracting quantitative and qualitative data, and research analysis. I also have experience in social media strategies, as I have written open source intelligence briefings in both English and Arabic, on news sources for British Consultancies in the field of geopolitical conflict.

Growing up, I was a competitive figure skater, and I taught skating to young children whose native tongues were Spanish. I was also able to use my language skills as a multilingual tutor, as I have engaged in Chinese content with English Language students whose native tongues were Chinese.
I have learned various other languages over the course of my life of travels, for the purpose of communications and education. I believe in building bridges between cultures for the growth of our society!
