I’m Dolly Menas, a media studies graduate and community reporter from Windhoek, Namibia, with over three years of experience in communication, digital media, and storytelling. I enjoy creating radio and social media content that feels engaging, clear, and impactful—whether it’s writing scripts for news updates, preparing story ideas, or presenting news on air (live and pre-recorded). I also love working with people and research: I conduct interviews with experts in specific fields, attend newsworthy events, and turn real-world information into written news articles and audio content for social media. My background includes video editing and using tools like Adobe Premiere and mobile/creative editing platforms, and I’m excited to bring my strong writing, teamwork, and critical thinking skills to dynamic media environments.
