Education

U
BA English LiteratureUniversity of Bristol
- Bristol, United Kingdom
My university degree has provided me with a plethora of knowledge, skill-sets and personal values that I believe are highly applicable to the world of editing. From critically evaluating academic sources, to analysing commercial fiction and writing my own satirical articles and short stories, my degree has rendered me highly proficient in literature and linguistics.
In addition to this, I served as an editor for Bristol University’s official student newspaper, The Epigram. This experience has equipped me with meticulous organisational skills, a hardworking attitude and a keen editorial eye for detail.
