About
I am an enthusiastic, passionate, multi-faceted creative with experience in a wide range of roles and environments, and a strong aptitude for learning new skills quickly and to a high standard. I have a keen eye for detail and a knack for creative problem solving, and I work well in both teams and on my own.
I am an experienced writer in many styles and formats, from academic writing to copywriting to creative writing including screenwriting, playwriting and poetry. I have written copy for a marketing website, and managed an arts festival’s social media accounts, and I currently write for an arts and culture magazine as a reviewer. I am very comfortable meeting tight deadlines and following specific writing requirements. I also have strong editing skills from my time in academia as well as my pursuits as a creative and nonfiction writer. I am a passionate reader, listener, and viewer, and keep up-to-date with the creative industries both in my own city and around the world.
I have studied and trained in a variety of creative fields including creative and nonfiction writing; fashion and costume design and construction; drawing, painting and sculpture; music performance and composition; film and theatre history, writing and production; and classical and modern dance.
I believe I would be an asset to this team and would bring enthusiasm and excitement to the environment while being a professional and reliable team member. I would love to be given the opportunity to work for this organisation.
