What I'm looking for

I seek roles combining teaching/administration or remote data and writing work where I can apply my organizational, translation, and content-creation skills while contributing to learner or client success.

I am a registered teacher with extensive experience in teaching Mathematics and Physics, administration, and data management. I led the Mathematics Department at a secondary school, contributing to record-high mean scores while fostering team spirit and learner-focused outcomes.

I bring five years of hands-on administrative and data-entry experience, plus multi-year freelance work as a content, article, blog, and copy writer. I have seven years of translation experience (French↔English), plus transcription work and strong familiarity with academic essay writing and citation styles including APA, MLA, and Chicago.

I am dependable, proactive, and service-oriented, with strengths in time management, leadership, computer literacy, and customer service. I look to apply my administrative, data, and writing skills in roles that value integrity, growth, and clear impact on learners or clients.
