I create AI-assisted content, digital campaigns, and research communications that grow engagement and strengthen brands.
What I'm looking for
I create AI-assisted content, digital campaigns, and research communications that turn ideas into engaging brand experiences.
For Royal Desert Restaurant, I built content calendars and SEO-based posting strategies that tripled engagement and reach, increased customer engagement from 25% to nearly 70%, and grew followers to 5,000+ within two months.
I've created promotional visuals, short-form videos, brochures, banners, and website interface contributions for Ladrags, You & Me Café, and the Centre for Learning Law & Business. My work combines branding, social media management, video editing, and audience-focused storytelling.
Alongside creative work, I've supported UN Women, ISSRA at NDU, and CRSS through reports, policy briefs, research, event documentation, and multilingual transcription. I bring research depth and cultural sensitivity to communications on regional affairs, climate security, gender-based violence, and public policy.
