About me

Looking for opportunities in film making, journalism, writing, and broadcast media. I am interested in human rights and social justice, diversity, women's rights, education, creative arts, and immigration with a passion for writing and videography. I am dedicated, hard-working, diligent and a fast learner, with very good presentation and organization skills. I am always excited to learn new things and strongly believe no knowledge is a waste.
