Work Experience
2020
My career in journalism was just begging, and I had a taste I could not give up. While still writing freelance for serval publications I began to feel like something was missing and it was my own voice and identity. I began to work with Character Media and Angel City Review on honing my own talents as an editor and journalist.
2019
After getting my MA in English I felt connected to a story that I could never bring myself to tell. This took me to voice my myself through magazines such as A Tired Heroine and Flaunt. I learned editorial skills, interviewing skills and event journalism. I also watched myself progress from an academic writer to a storyteller.
2018
Before graduating university I was working in Marketing as a Project Manager, and I loved it. Getting to know my clients and branding their identity was something I will never lose passion for, but I realized it was now my time to shine. I got together with some brilliant editors and publishers created my first chapbook with Business Bear Press called Wolf.
