Gabriel Verveniotis

Toronto,Ontario

Summary

I am a published Canadian author and novelist writing award-winning novels and short stories since 2017. I am also a freelance journalist, researcher and Literature and History graduate from the University of Toronto.

My passion is politics, creative writing, history and journalism. I am a wordsmith and news junky. My lifestyle is scholastic, intellectual and academic. I set myself a timer for at least five hours a day of reading, study and research.

I am versed in philosophy, political science, theology and just about any Humanities subject there is. I endeavour to acquire a position as a writer/researcher/reporter.

I would make an excellent candidate because I am creative, charismatic, experienced and highly educated in matters related to writing, history and political science.
