Copywriter
– Present
A dedicated, imaginative and creative worker, with an ambition to become a fiction writer, experienced in customer service, public relations, archival work, copywriting, editorial work, creative writing, radio broadcasting, and many aspects of print and online publication.
I provide clear, effective, on-message copywriting services, working to the highest standards of presentation clarity and attractiveness for an individual product or collective brand. I can work to strict deadlines with ease and am able to produce material requested at short notice if so required, and still to an excellent standard.
Additional services include:
> Copy-editing of documents in need of correction, emendation or improvement.
> Social media campaign design and blogging.
> Ghostwriting services to ease the pressure and provide a helping second hand on extensive and time-consuming assignments.
> Voiceover work for audio/digital marketing platforms and projects.

Primary responsibilities included bookselling, assisting with enquiries and requests, and team training. I have hosted the Broad St. Book Group at Waterstones for over four years at time of writing, and have both hosted and been a participant in events held at the store (as a poet reader at the latter).


I worked as a Sales Assistant, and here developed my talent for customer-facing service, confidence in selling, and good rapport in general customer relations.
Two summers working as an assistant to the Summer Reading Challenge, encouraging children to read up to and beyond a set number of books, with the hope of instilling in them a passion for reading.

Activities and Societies: Vice President of The Scribblers (RU Creative Writing Society) between 2012 and 2013. Sub-editor of 2012 edition of annual arts anthology, produced by students and university press. Ran for Presidency of Rock Society but was unfortunately unable to commit to duties due to coursework. Regular contributor to Spark* (campus newspaper) for three years.
Activities and Societies: Film Society, College Newspaper.
Activities and Societies: School magazine, Library assistant (volunteer), Gym member, Guitar lessons.
