Personal Information
I am 23 years old and originally from Namibia. I recently graduated with a one-year Postgraduate Diploma in Marketing. I am ambitious, hardworking, and a quick learner. I work well under pressure and my background in drama has given me the ability to excel at working and communicating with people, as well as given me a creative edge to my work. I am skilled in creative writing and I am looking for a challenging and fast-paced work environment within the media industry in order to develop my creative skill set further. Education
