What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to empower students through writing and education.

I am an experienced writer, editor, and education specialist with over 13 years of expertise in leading international development programs and mentoring youth. My passion lies in empowering young individuals to craft compelling college admissions essays that authentically reflect their voice and potential. I have a proven ability to communicate complex ideas clearly and inspire diverse learners, ensuring that each student's unique narrative is highlighted.

Throughout my career, I have led strategic communication initiatives, producing detailed reports and knowledge briefs on gender justice and youth empowerment. My role as Head of Programmes involved mentoring youth and partners, providing technical guidance on effective communication and advocacy. I have authored and edited comprehensive project reports and delivered training focused on grant writing and evaluation, always emphasizing the importance of clarity and impact in written materials.

With a strong command of English grammar and style, I am dedicated to providing constructive feedback that enhances academic writing and personal narratives. I thrive in remote work environments and am proficient in various virtual collaboration tools, allowing me to connect with students and colleagues effectively.
