  Content Creator
  Using high school teaching resources, I would design briefs for interactive digital content. This content is used by students all over the world. I worked with designers, coders and animators to see the brief I'd written come to life. I set assessments and re-worked old content into fun and accessible formats. In addition to brief design, my role involved quality assessment of many projects, seeing projects to completion, as well as evaluating content and advising a way forward the English department.
