What I'm looking for

I seek a PR/communications role where I can lead strategic media relations, run creative campaigns, and grow within a collaborative, client-focused team.

I am a PR and communications professional with experience driving strategic media programmes for cultural institutions and consumer brands; at BLJ Worldwide I was promoted within three months for strong client impact and I contribute to communications for Qatar Museums and Qatar National Library.

I produce media monitoring and coverage analysis, coordinate press events and previews, and draft press releases, speeches and targeted newsletters distributed via Mailchimp. I also develop creative social campaigns, manage influencer partnerships, and create content for platforms including Instagram and TikTok.

I hold a BA Hons in International Relations with Politics and have experience in government and client-facing roles that demanded confidentiality, empathy and clear stakeholder communication. I combine strong organisational skills with a passion for writing and public speaking (LAMDA Grade 6).
