What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a sustainable part-time role as a Chinese copywriter, leveraging my bilingual writing and marketing/project experience to create book and social media content that supports campaigns and client needs.

I’m a Chinese copywriter who brings strong language precision to real-world communication. Currently, as a Project Officer (Elderly Service) at Christian Family Service Centre, I manage writing projects, book publications, and social media content creation—strengthening both my writing craft and my project execution.

Before moving into the social service sector, I spent over 20 years in marketing and business development in the watch industry. I’m especially good at writing marketing materials, and throughout my career I focused on communicating brand positioning clearly to the right stakeholders.

After graduating with a degree in Journalism from Hong Kong Baptist University and completing further studies at Peking University, I progressed from an entry-level Marketing Officer to a Senior Manager position held for the past decade. In that role, I regularly liaised with clients, managed data and strategic marketing plans, and traveled extensively overseas—honing my bilingual communication skills and high level of precision.

Beyond my full-time commitments, I’m seeking a sustainable part-time opportunity to broaden my horizons, acquire new experiences, and generate an additional stream of income. I’d welcome the chance to discuss how my bilingual writing and marketing/project background can be an asset to your team.
