Intro

Writing has become my form of escapism. It is through the act of creating another world or living vicariously through another person’s life that I find solace. This personal connection to writing fuels my passion and commitment to producing exceptional work.

Work

Having been involved in Journalism since 2018, I have accumulated a portfolio of over 500 published pieces. These range from news articles to non-fiction creative writing, all of which strive to convey the genuine voice of the speaker or myself. In 2022, I made a career shift and dedicated myself to teaching English Literature full-time. This endeavor has allowed me to refine my editing abilities and adopt a more discerning approach to my own writing.
