Summary
Story Content Writer with nearly 10 years of experience in the independent writing development space. Visionary creator, story editor, storyteller, entrepreneur, and business operations manager with demonstrated projects that have taken an idea from concept to delivery to produce entertaining and inspiring pieces. Collaborative in building autonomous teams, working closely with the executive branch and project owners. In short, I am bilingual as a writer and executive branch liaison with little guidance in developing projects with strategic and creative teams to develop quality written content. Expertise in project management and decision-making skills. Reviewed scripts, oversaw writing, developed writing talents, and skilled at coordinating documentation and personnel resources to complete work under tight schedules. A company hires someone with my experience and skillset when they need to build a writing team, understand the illicit wants and needs of the executive arm (without spelling out each detail), and to get quality work done on time and in a professional manner.
