SOFT Skills
Highly innovative and inspiring. Consequently, each of my projects is distinct. My portfolio contains a variety of work, including advertising posters and banners for discordant members.
As the NHEG’s bimonthly magazine’s chief editor, must have time management and accompany the group with strict release deadlines.
Adaptable to multiple independent projects. Flexibility and responsiveness honed via years of volunteering for international NGOs. (One of my sites is available at www.planforthevillages.org).
Developed and improved communication skills since joining NHEG in 2017. Dealing with editorial and social media teams requires a high level of professionalism and motivation.
Furthermore, high persistence and patience are required to complete freelance projects such as book covers and posters.
All of the aforementioned roles require exceptional empathy and leadership abilities. Being a good listener is the most important skill.
