About me
I have been freelance writing for 4 years. My skills include; creative content writing, copywriting and blog writing. I am currently working with multiple businesses to build up their websites, creating content and providing useful information. I am auspiciously expanding my skills into the world of online marketing - I believe creative content combined with digital marketing techniques is a recipe for success. I am also the founder of the Feminist Club in Preston which has given me a great platform to practice using my skills, to actually make a difference. With the use of social media, a blog and other marketing techniques the club is already creating waves by raising money and awareness.

    After moving back to Preston after University I was looking for societies to join, I soon noticed that there wasn't a Feminist Society. So, I decided to just set one up myself. I have really enjoyed seeing the club grow, meeting new people and using my own skills to help build up the online presence. Roles - Marketing the club with traditional methods as well as online methods. Trying out new ways to spread the word. -Organising meetups, events and campaigns. - Social media management. Drawing illustrations to keep a steady theme, creating plans and sharing relevant articles. - Blogging through Angeboren.wordpress.com. The articles I write on here are political opinion pieces or informative feminist pieces.

    Activities and Societies: Societies: I joined the Journalism society, Feminism society, Labour society whilst at University. Activities: Wrote for the Lincoln University student newspaper Worked at the University radio station Joined student union protests and campaigns Throughout my 3-year course, I was involved in broadcast, print and online journalism. I chose to major in print and online journalism since writing has always been the biggest passion of mine. Whilst studying journalism, I really feel that I found my interests, writing style and confidence. I tried incredibly hard to create high-quality pieces of writing and aesthetically pleasing magazine pages. I also completed an NCTJ diploma alongside my degree in University which, condensed down, also means I am a qualified journalism and have extensive knowledge on Journalism law including defamation, libel and contempt of court. I also have a diploma in shorthand which proves itself to be a very valuable skill in times of need.
