About me
I am a dynamic individual who works hard and enjoys developing themselves professionally. I thrive in working environments that have an open and friendly ethos and who value their workers.
I am a Language and Literature graduate with international academic and work experience in Brighton, The Netherlands and Spain. My key achievements include; leading groups in researching and writing articles, working for children´s literacy projects, creating and teaching an educational syllabus and sub-managing the online profile of a local magazine. My work with an English project to enable children with learning difficulties and from disadvantaged backgrounds to succeed in literary fields has more recently developed into contributing to set up a similar program overseas.
My developed skill-set of researching, writing and editing culturally diverse content for monthly released magazines with various demographic audiences has given me a breadth of experience in producing creative, concise and communicative material with varying tones under strict time constraints. Whilst managing sub-teams and maintaining online forums and content, I have been given responsibilities in production that show a competence with both technological fields and good rapport with people both inside and outside companies. My qualifications and experience lend themselves to a job that is creative yet requires analytical skills.
