My work experience includes journalism, corporate communications, editing, and PR communications.

Because my work has often been deadline driven, I have proven my ability to maintain accuracy and quality, even when required to work quickly. I am therefore confident that I would prove an asset to any business looking for a high-quality content creator or editor.
