What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to grow my editing and writing skills in a supportive environment.

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented copy editor with a passion for clear communication and effective storytelling. My experience at Brigham Young University - Idaho has equipped me with a solid foundation in editing and writing, where I provided training to student reporters on AP style and editing skills. I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy helping others improve their writing.

During my internship at Adoption.com, I honed my research and writing abilities by crafting engaging articles that adhered to SEO standards. My role involved editing and formatting content for publication, ensuring that all pieces met the organization's high standards. I also have experience in web publishing, utilizing WordPress to manage and draft content effectively.

With a Bachelor of English focused on technical writing and visual communications, I have developed a strong skill set that includes proficiency in Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator. I am eager to leverage my skills in a professional setting where I can contribute to impactful projects and continue to grow as a writer and editor.
