Work Experience & skills 

Here are some examples of my past work.

I have experience working within the journalism field from interviewing experts to writing movie reviews and recipes to creating a magazine and a website from scratch. 

I also have experience working in the PR field from copywriting to liaising with journalists, promoting events, organising press releases and newsletters.

I also worked as an SMM and have skills that extend into the photography and videography fields.
