About me
I am a driven graduate of Multimedia Journalism, with a natural ability to draw out a compelling narrative and present it in an engaging and immersive way. During my studies, I worked confidently with a range of mediums where I developed a strong passion for digital and social media. I refined my understanding of social media during university by working as a Social Media Manager and taking online courses. I am currently seeking a challenging role where I can integrate my creativity and passion for digital and social media to make positive changes.
Projects
  • UNEDIT Magazine
    UNEDIT MagazineDuring my final year at university, I designed and produced a 12-page lifestyle magazine using Adobe InDesign and Adobe Photoshop. The concept behind this magazine is to challenge the lack of transparency on social media platforms by discussing mental health, body positivity, well-being, and the reality of self-care. . Unedit’s core values are self-acceptance and living life unapologetically. Grade: 1st
  • STIGMA Podcast
    STIGMA PodcastDuring my second year at university, I created a podcast alongside four students in which we all recorded and edited audio for this project. The podcast is called Stigma, in which two inspiring stories are shared by two immigrants on their experiences moving to the UK in the 1950s. Adobe Audition, Garage Band and Sound Cloud were used in the production and publication of this project.
