What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that allows me to leverage my communication skills and creativity in a collaborative environment.

I am a results-driven communications professional with a strong background in public relations, content creation, and brand strategy. My experience includes working with diverse organizations, where I have successfully developed engaging materials that resonate with various audiences. I pride myself on my ability to leverage my skills in Adobe Creative Suite to create compelling content that drives engagement and supports organizational goals.

Throughout my career, I have held several impactful roles, including my recent position as a Marketing and Communication Lead Intern at Operation HOPE, where I increased volunteer engagement by 25% through innovative communication strategies. Additionally, my role as a Communications Specialist at King Newton Financial Services allowed me to design email campaigns that contributed to a significant 30% increase in website traffic. I am passionate about using my skills to make a positive impact and help organizations thrive.
