Introduction

Media and Communications Practitioner
University Undergraduate - Bachelor of Arts (Communications)

I am a current university student with a creative and inquisitive mind as well as a passion for storytelling through digital media and various communication platforms that would inspire positivity and meaningfully impact the people around me.

While I am always on a lookout for opportunities to develop my current skill-sets in the aspects of social media, journalism, photography and videography, I am ever ready to learn something new and broaden my horizons to be a better impact storyteller.
