Aspiring media professional specializing in journalism and social media content creation to tell engaging digital stories.
What I'm looking for
I’m an aspiring media professional with hands-on experience in content creation, social media, and creative collaboration. I’ve built a foundation in writing, editing, research, and digital storytelling, with a reputation for multitasking and detail-oriented communication.
At Mississippi Free Press, I researched, wrote, and edited articles for a statewide audience and conducted interviews with professionals and community members. I also mentored peers in writing, interviewing, and editing, strengthening teamwork and organization in fast-paced environments.
As a Content Creator for social media, I planned, filmed, and edited engaging video content and supported creative direction and audience engagement strategies to boost following. I’m excited to bring my creative and operational experience to a dynamic art gallery environment—supporting engaging events and collaborating with top professionals.
