Latricia Powell
Journalism and Communications—Writer, Editor, Content creator
Dallas/Fort Worth Area
Summary
I am a graduate of Tarleton State University where I received a
Bachelor's degree in Communications and Journalism as well as a
minor in Technical Writing. I committed four years to develop skills
for a career in media. I am a descriptions writer for Red Bee Media,
where I write, edit and rewrite content for television and online
media. I was a content editor/writer after graduation and became
well-versed in the writing style for marketing. I was heavily involved
in the media organization on campus along with Tarleton's student
chapter of Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ). My passion for
writing and editing is what drives me, so I am always open to new
freelancing or remote opportunities.
