Starting out as a casual contributor for theculturetrip.com (a website that garners 250,000-300,000 unique visitors per month), I progressed to a position where I wrote arts and culture articles on a regular basis. Tasked with researching specific events, authors, artists and musicians and submitting profiles about them in order to inform people about their significance and their works, the position shows that I have the ability to not only write creatively but also in a far more reserved manner as the style and tone of all articles should be scholarly and critical whilst avoiding being too dry and theoretical.

Supervisor

Apr 2013 - Mar 2014
I worked in a role, which included aspects from catering, retail and marketing. The vision behind 'Leaf' was to create a community space in which both adults and children can relax and learn and I was there from the opening of the store and had a very hands on role in it’s development. A coffee shop at the front and a children's bookshop at the rear of the premises. Training for the management role I had a comprehensive knowledge of the stock, best sellers and what age-groups/customer base each area of our stock would appeal to and why. Part of my role involved social media management meaning that I was in charge of coordinating posts for the business’ Facebook, Twitter & Pinterest accounts, making sure posts are relevant to the customer base, maximize customer engagement as well as pushing our products and services and releasing the posts at a time that would maximize awareness of the brand.

I wrote articles on a regular basis for the website grads.co.uk about how student living has affected me and how I adapted to graduate life. The website has a large, and ever growing audience, and the material I provided for it needed to reflect this, encompassing issues which affected the target reader. Providing such specific content meant that I was constantly adapting to the demands of the readership. I am still an occasional contributor.

Journalism Intern

May 2013 - Aug 2013
I undertook a three month internship where I researched topics that were in the public sphere and delivered an article on any given topic each week via the WordPress medium. This allowed me to hone my research skills as well as deliver high quality work to a regular deadline. It offered me experience within the world of journalism and gain knowledge of its various practices. This led to the opportunity of still being able to submit articles once my internship was completed.
