What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote role that combines creativity, organization, and communication—ideally in education, writing, or project coordination. I enjoy contributing ideas, solving problems, and supporting team success.

I am an experienced educator, creative writer, and project manager with over a decade of professional experience across education, film, and administrative sectors. My career began in 2007 as a classroom teacher, where I taught Computer Studies, English Language, and Creative Writing to secondary school students. Over the years, I have developed and delivered lesson plans, compiled school examination materials, and guided learners toward academic and personal growth. I hold an NCE from Enugu State College of Education (Technical) and am registered with the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN).

My interest in storytelling led me to establish Infinity Movie Star Production, a registered film and media company based in Enugu, Nigeria. As the Founder and Creative Director, I have written and produced several screenplays and short film projects, including Official Card and Round Table. I also design sponsorship proposals, partnership documents, and creative campaigns for brand collaborations and film promotions.

In addition, I manage Ernest Embassy Travels, a travel consultancy that supports clients with visa documentation, correspondence, and international coordination. This role has strengthened my administrative, research, and communication abilities — essential for remote professional work.

I am skilled in Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, Canva, and CapCut, and I have practical experience in digital content creation, proposal writing, and online teaching. My combined background in education, creative writing, and administration allows me to bring structure, creativity, and precision to every project I handle.

Outside of work, I’m passionate about sports (football and volleyball), poetry, and youth mentorship. I believe in continuous learning and using creativity to inspire others.

I am open to remote opportunities in teaching, tutoring, writing, content development, administrative support, and creative project management.
