Profile
Passionate about writing engaging, dynamic content, I craft my work to create a style and tone
that appeals to the audience. Qualified with a 2.1 BA (Hons) in English Studies, my knowledge
of the English language is excellent, allowing me to manipulate content to create unique pieces
of text. Having previously worked as a teacher, I began working as a freelance writer in April
2016 to gain experience and develop a change of direction in my career. Since then I have
developed a sound knowledge of SEO practices, accessing the back end of websites to add and
edit content and effectively managing social media sites. The importance of continuously keeping
up-to-date with technological developments and trends in social media is paramount to my work.
I value feedback from each customer I work with as this drives my ability forward, enabling me
to meet, and often, exceed expectations. Iam eager to further develop my skills and knowledge
in the field through studying on the Computational and Data Journalism (MSc) course at Cardiff
University next year and through gaining more working experience.
