What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role where I can contribute through clear, accurate writing and continue developing my craft.

At the Historical and Literary Society at the University of Surrey, I contributed to research and the development of an exhibition about the university's history. My role focused on copywriting and transcribing archival materials.

I studied English Literature With Sociology at the University of Surrey and was awarded an upper second-class honours degree. My studies included literary analysis, creative and critical writing, and sociological methods.

I'm new to professional writing, but I enjoy turning ideas into clear, well-crafted work. Editing, proofreading, research, and information synthesis are among the skills I bring to writing tasks. I'm excited to begin a writing career and continue developing my craft.
