## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm seeking to contribute my newsroom leadership, content strategy, and audience-growth experience to a dynamic, high-growth media organization.
```

## About

```text
I've led digital news strategy and editorial teams across Shine My Crown/Cool Shawn LLC, YEN.com.gh, GhanaWeb, and Joy News. At Shine My Crown, I grew site traffic by 40% within a year through targeted editorial planning and SEO optimization.

I manage writers and editors, shape editorial calendars, and turn breaking, political, legal, business, and human-interest stories into clear, engaging coverage. At GhanaWeb, I edited at least 20 articles daily and helped deliver its first live TV election coverage in 2020.

My work combines sharp news judgment, rigorous editing, audience growth, and newsroom production under tight deadlines. I'm looking to bring more than a decade of digital, radio, and television newsroom experience to a dynamic, high-growth media organization.
