What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my communication skills in a dynamic environment, focusing on strategic planning and impactful storytelling.

I am a dedicated Journalist and Strategic Communication Consultant with a strong background in creative writing and social media communication. My experience spans various sectors, including public relations, media, and corporate communications. I have honed my skills in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), branding, and liaising with PR agencies, which has enabled me to deliver impactful communication strategies.

Throughout my career, I have worked with notable organizations such as the Ministry of Information & Communications and 91.7 Radio Port Harcourt, where I served as a Correspondent and News Producer. My role as a Geography Information System Officer at Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Company further solidified my expertise in data analysis and strategic planning. I am passionate about using my skills to create compelling narratives and drive effective communication.
