Words. I've always had a relentless interest in words and how they can make an impact on humanity and the world. The curiosity and passion I have has led me to accumulate years of experience editing, writing and managing many forms of story-telling including but not limited to: non-fiction and fiction manuscripts, academic essays, news articles and film scripts. My passion to pave paths for people with similar aspirations and dreams is what drives me to strive for the best.
