About me

I am a writer and web worker building websites, digital marketing projects and social media presence. I develop websites using Wordpress, Wix and Squarespace platforms. My writing background includes funding proposals, journalistic writing, short biographies or profiles, writing for the web, creative writing, press release and promo writing, copy editing, and poetry.

I am a people person, a good team player but also work well on my own. I am a distance worker and am home based, working with clients via the web using VOIP technology (Skype), Google Hangout, email, phone and social media platforms. I have considerable arts presentation, admin, marketing, community media, computer and Internet expertise. I've been using PC and MAC computers for over 30 years. I am familiar with a wide range of digital media-related software. I'm also an amateur photographer.

I was born in Jamaica, grew up in Ontario, Canada, and live in Wales, UK. I love independent experimental film, but watch a wide variety of film and video or pass the time listening to music, crocheting, reading or singing karaoke.
