ABOUT ME
Up Close & Personal
Born in the heart of KL, I am a committed mass communication graduate with an honours degree in Advertising and Journalism. I am looking to secure a full-time position in a renowned company where I can utilize my current skills set and experience to further progress within my job and career.
​
Armed with a Diploma and a Bachelor's Degree in Mass Communication, as well as valuable industry experiences gained from previous workplace with a renowned international publishing house, Scholastic Inc. under my belt, I am confident in facing any given tasks entrusted to me.
​
I am highly confident in my abilities in spotting grammar mistakes and spelling errors at a glance. I am also confident that I am able to create or proofread words to suit my target audience or to follow a client's brief.
​
Being a huge movie buff and a total bookworm, my head is constantly in the clouds and I consume fictional stories and movie quotes like the air I breathe. Just make sure not to bother me during my personal time, as that might result in fatal injuries. But, no extreme cases have been reported so far.
