I'm offering
Ever since I was a child, I was trained to value and produce excellence through hard work and perseverance. I have brought those qualities to my academics, both as a student - gaining a PhD in Medieval Studies from Cornell University in 2009 - and as a teacher. I also bring them to the freelance and volunteer projects I take on as a tutor and editor.
I have exceptional organisational skills and the ability to learn anything quickly, be it a new module of history or a new skill for the job. One of my gifts is to be able to interpolate, analyse and distill large quantities of data and information and present them in a clear and concise way to audiences of various backgrounds. I excel at executing plans and bringing them to completion according to deadline. I can combine attention to detail with strategic thinking, zooming in and out at need.
