I believe in this fast-paced era, the time is now limited, in-house resources are getting expensive, thus everyone is going all out for outsourcing. Amidst Covid-19, many people lost their job and source of income. Here I am, delivering my years of experiences, services & skills to become a professional freelancer! I'm a Master's graduate from the University of Glasgow, UK, which gives me the requisite background to handle research writing. I am able to write in any genre ranging from simple articles, research papers, proposal papers, business plans, and many more. I've experience writing proposals for more than 8 years. I had been actively involved in many university programs that needed me to write various proposals for bidding, budgeting, and project management. From these experiences, I've gathered various skills, including communication, teamwork, leadership, time management, and presentation skills. With over 13 years in education and 8 years in business development complemented by 5 years as a creative writer , I’ve navigated the intersections of market research, compliance, and content creation, all while ensuring every step aligns with the big picture. Yes, I’ve worn many hats, but they all fit under one purpose: driving impactful results. Today, I channel that diverse background into my role as a Compliance and Product Development Manager, where I ensure every innovation is both impactful and aligned with regulatory standards. Throughout my journey, I’ve worked across market research, product strategy, policy compliance, and content development. I've dived deep into the world of social media and product strategy as a Social Media Manager and Product Specialist. Whether it’s launching a new product, crafting a compelling narrative, or coordinating cross-functional teams, I thrive in fast-paced environments where creativity meets strategy. If you’re looking for someone who’s not just a thinker but a doer, who can roll up their sleeves to get things done while ensuring every move is strategic and compliant, let’s connect. I’m excited about opportunities where innovation, teamwork, and meticulous planning are at the core, and I’m eager to contribute to a forward-thinking organization ready to make a difference. Data entry is also my cup of tea. I'm able to complete the database by internet/web research and creating and distribute online questionnaires to gather more datas. I am a versatile and flexible freelancers. I can work at a reasonably fast-pace efficiently and meticulously. I enjoy writing and willing to work extra mile to keep the client and myself happy with the result. Beside that, the experiences that I gained from managing events and projects allows me to develop few designing and editing skills in both photos and videos. I'm able to negotiate the rate and will definitely finish the work well done.
