I'm offering
I am a communication and engagement specialist with 6 years experience working in high profile projects and have recently decided to go into freelance copywriting.
I am available for short-term contracts planning and delivering communication strategies with copywriting and editing as a major strength.
I am also on a unique journey of personal development through property/real estate development - a weird combo, you might think! Well, that's me... I started a blog in 2019 as a hobby to document my journey and I thoroughly enjoy the feel-goo feeling when I publish a blogpost.
I have received positive reviews on my blog, mostly by word of mouth, which has given me the much-needed encouragement to go into freelance copywriting.
I love the act of speaking to engage and build trust and I also believe this is key is helping others tell your story.
Please see attached CV.
Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to working with you.
