What I'm looking for

I seek roles combining communication, research, and design where I can support campaign strategy, stakeholder engagement, and data-informed decision-making in collaborative teams.

I am a communication and research-oriented professional with experience supporting marketing communication, public-facing initiatives, and research-driven projects across education, technology, public sector, and creative environments.

I translate research findings, stakeholder needs, and campaign objectives into clear communication, structured documentation, and coordinated project support, having worked in roles from teaching and business strategy to government internships and freelance design.

I deliver client-facing communication, basic data analysis, CRM tracking (Salesforce), and visual assets using tools like Figma, Procreate, and Adobe Illustrator, and I bring recognized creative achievements and a strong academic record.
