    I am a Master of Arts (MA) Candidate in Arts Administration from The University of Akron. During my time in the Arts Administration program, I have worked in many areas regarding the arts where having high skills in writing is an absolute must. Previously, I was the Gallery Manager at Standing Rock Cultural Arts (SRCA) in Kent, Ohio, where I performed diverse administrative duties to support the galleries’ operations. Notably, at SRCA, a nonprofit cultural art center and gallery, I demonstrated exceptional skills in optimizing the gallery’s fundraising efforts by devising innovative approaches in response to the challenges posed by the post-COVID-19 environment. Through the Betterworld online fundraising platform, I successfully conducted an auction of artwork and items donated to SRCA. To secure the donated items, I liaised with various organizations in the Downtown Kent region, inviting them to support the gallery by contributing items for auction. I also volunteer my abilities to the Center for Applied Drama and Autism (CADA), where I serve as a Board Member. Following recent shifts in CADA’s organizational structure, I have taken on the responsibility of assisting the revitalization of the organization in the acquisition of funding. To this end, I have been actively engaged in researching potential foundations, businesses, and government organizations that offer grants that align with CADA’s mission. Working closely with the Board President and Business Manager, I have coordinated efforts to gather all the necessary information pertaining to the grants, ensuring that we submit competitive applications that have a strong chance of securing funding. Background: Grant writing, copywriting, research, nonprofit organizations, business proposals, and exhibition proposals.

    As a dedicated editor and mother, I look forward to prospering in my career while raising my two children. I have a Bachelor of Arts in News/Mass Media with a certificate in psychology, but most of my writing experience is within the news field. In college, I gained a well-rounded introduction to the media industry, completing courses in print and broadcast media and new media productions. I helped design and produce my university’s first student magazine and completed a newspaper internship program, gaining experience as a reporter, writer, photographer, and editor. I further honed these skills as a staff writer for a community magazine publication in the early years of my career. Full-time parenting took priority, and I have spent the past several years devoted to my family and becoming an expert at time management, multi-tasking, and even common core math. My family will always be a top priority, but I'm excited to devote more time to my career goals. I'm eager to incorporate my knowledge and experience into the growing media industry and for the opportunity to prosper and achieve my goals while also helping others achieve theirs. I've been working on Upwork for a little over two years and gained a great deal of experience as a copy editor and content manager. I've held several long-term contracts with talented web developers and content creators and collaborated with their teams and writers to streamline the success of their websites. I coach and guide writers, copyedit using AP Style, design layouts, and publish multimedia content to social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, and more. I often work on WordPress sites, am organized, and can manage many projects at once. I'm familiar with Google Docs and collaboration tools like Slack, Monday, and Pipeline, as well as programs like WordPress, Canva, Grammarly, Tailwind, FloDesk, Mailchimp, and AI writing tools like Chat GPT and Koala Writer. I enjoy learning, am eager to collaborate with like-minded individuals, and can adapt well to the ever-changing world of Google.
