What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to create impactful content in a collaborative environment focused on social justice and sustainability.

I am a seasoned writer with extensive experience in audience-focused writing and editing. My career has spanned various roles, including content creation for travel, environmentalism, and social justice. I thrive in multicultural teams, both remote and in-person, and have a passion for crafting compelling narratives that resonate with diverse audiences.

Throughout my career, I have contributed to various platforms, including my work as a content writer and journalist for ACES Poynter, where I focus on impactful topics such as renewable energy and public health. My educational background in Art History complements my writing, allowing me to approach subjects with a unique perspective. I am committed to using my skills to promote awareness and inspire change through my writing.
