What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can use my copywriting and editing strengths, contribute to content or communications teams, work reliably (remote or hybrid), and grow in responsibility.

I am a dedicated copywriter and editor with BA (English and Media Studies) from the University of the Witwatersrand and practical experience across freelance and in-house roles. I take pride in meticulous grammar and attention to detail, and I bring strong interpersonal skills to every project.

My background includes ghostwriting, copywriting, editing, proofreading, social media management, and administrative support for executives. I have worked remotely for close to two years and have experience managing diaries, bookkeeping tasks, and coordinating production shoots.

I am disciplined, reliable, and personable, able to meet deadlines while liaising effectively with stakeholders. My combined strengths in writing, editing, and organizational work make me a strong candidate for content, communications, and administrative roles.
