I am a self-motivated journalist with over 5 years of experience crafting timely, informative, and factual stories. I have a strong attention to complexity and nuance, and I am highly adaptable in both freelance and established publications. My proficiency extends to print media as well as multiple platforms across digital media. I am committed to upholding high standards of journalistic integrity and ethical conduct.
Throughout my career, I have followed trending topics and used evolving news to develop, pitch, and research story leads and ideas that are creative, timely, and relevant. I have written and edited investigative stories for a range of platforms, including print magazines, websites, podcasts, and YouTube channels. My contributions have led to a 21% increase in website traffic and a 10% increase in subscriptions over the last year.
I have an extensive network of valuable contacts and sources, which has allowed me to gain exclusive insights in key industries. I consistently produce high-quality work under the pressure of tight deadlines. I have pitched stories to hundreds of publications and secured over 200 clients, including VICE, Northwest Travel & Life Magazine, Cascadia Magazine, and The Seattle Times. I have demonstrated the ability to create content across various platforms, including print, digital publications, video, and blogs. Additionally, I have performed field research, conducted interviews, written articles, and handled proofreading and editing with quick turnaround. I have also taken on various business-related duties.
