What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that values creativity and collaboration, offering opportunities for growth.

I am a self-motivated and hard-working individual with a diverse background in sports writing and copywriting. My recent role as an iGaming copywriter at Games Global allowed me to craft compelling, brand-aligned content for slot games, ensuring high engagement and marketability. I successfully executed external communications and researched awards submissions, securing wins at prestigious events like the Global Gaming Awards.

Previously, I worked as a Sports Betting Writer at Major League Content, where I produced well-researched content for clients such as The Mirror and Golf Monthly. My ability to collaborate with stakeholders and refine content based on feedback has been crucial in meeting brand expectations. I consistently deliver high-quality copy under tight deadlines, demonstrating my strong understanding of sports betting laws across the UK and US.

Beyond my professional experience, I am passionate about community engagement and the arts. I perform spoken word poetry and engage with the LGBTQIA+ community through drag performances, which have significantly boosted my confidence and communication skills. I believe in the power of the written word and strive to create impactful content in all my endeavors.
