    • Demon Media

      Aug 2018 - Aug 2019
      Health and Lifestyle Editor

      As a sub-editor for The Demon Magazine, I had to ensure a wide range of topics were covered in this section and I aimed to generate original content ideas. I regularly posted article suggestions in our Facebook group and managed writers by setting deadlines and making sure these were adhered to. Each month, I would proof-read all articles before sending them to the Editor In-Chief and design team. Furthermore, I participated in member and management meetings for The Demon and Demon Media as a whole. Show less

    • De Montfort University

      Oct 2018 - Oct 2021

      The Frontrunners scheme works to enhance student employability via high-quality internships. My internship was based in the Department of Politics, People and Place and was focused on promoting the learning and research of both students and staff. I developed my digital communications skills by promoting the department's activities and events within the Business and Law faculty and on social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. I was responsible for the department's co-created magazine, POPP Culture, and collated material from staff and students across a range of subject areas including political party conferences and the SDGs. I would also participate in POPP events including Congress to Campus and European Parliament to Campus and assist lecturers when necessary. Furthermore, I helped with the planning and organisation of the annual dissertation poster event.Skills developed within this role include self-management, teamwork, problem-solving, social media outreach and strong written and verbal communication skills.
