Summary
I am a recent graduate of Ontario Tech's Communications and Digital Media program. Over the past 5 years, I have gained experience in a variety of communications-based workplace environments. Through my work with Ontario Tech I wrote and starred in original video content advertising the school's various tutoring services. I also tutored undergraduates in communication and writing skills. Similarly, I script, create and post original digital content on Youtube. These opportunities allowed me to grow my writing and content production skills to where I can now create concise, informative, and engaging material on a particular subject. I hope to work within your organization to expand my knowledge of and gain experience in marketing and communications.
