What I'm looking for

I seek editorial or content roles that value accuracy, storytelling, and multimedia skills, with opportunities for mentoring and growth in a collaborative environment.

I am a Senior Content Specialist and contributor with years of experience editing legal print products for a major publisher and producing multimedia journalism covering sports, gaming, and culture. I have a strong background in content creation, reporting, and copyediting, plus experience teaching senior high school subjects in research and social sciences.

I consistently deliver accurate, well-researched content and have led testing and reporting functions as a school psychometrician. I combine editorial rigor with practical skills in photography, layout, and Adobe tools to produce polished publications and engaging journalistic work.
