Summary

As a current Full Sail student working towards the MFA in Creative Writing, I am a dedicated writer and editor with 5 years of experience managing overall content strategy for psychological academic papers and creative writing. I have decisive and well-organized leadership skills with an exceptional understanding of content creation and storytelling, and proven skills in capitalizing on current events and dynamic trends to engage audiences, accomplish objectives and exceed expectations. As a Pakistani American, I understand just how influential the media and its words can be, and utilizing this is, in itself, a scientific act. As a Medium writer, I create my stories for scripts with the goal of going into filmmaking; as an MCUGeeks reporter, I cover all the latest Marvel news and coverage as soon as it is announced to the public; as a BlindianProject editor, I cover social justice disparities between and involving South Asian and Black communities. Furthermore, after recently been hired as a freelance List Writer for Screen Rant, I have mastery over the meeting of multiple deadlines and completing prompts that include specific guidelines and limitations.
