Work Experience, Editorial InternThisMuchIKnow

My role at #ThisMuchIKnow News included pitching news story ideas, creating relevant and engaging content for the company’s social media pages using Adobe Spark, and writing longform news articles. I also edited articles, and built stories using the software Contentful and WebPress. I worked from home during this position, which taught me self-motivation and discipline.

I cared for two children, aged 5 and 8, whose parents were working from home full time. I assisted with the children’s virtual learning and worked full time during the summer holidays, which required creativity and organisation as most facilities for children were closed due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
