Dispatch CV

Writer · visual storyteller · independent publisher
Profile
Writing, attention and reliable follow-through.
I write, edit and build work for readers. My independent practice is supported by experience in clinical placements, research, client design, retail and fulfilment.
Across those settings I learned to keep clear records, listen, explain, revise, prioritise and carry work through. I bring those habits forward without asking earlier roles to define the work I am making now.
What I bring
- Records and verification. Clear documentation and careful handling of monitored information.
- People and communication. Direct service, stakeholder contact and responsive client work.
- Revision and presentation. Managing feedback, deadlines and the public form of a piece.
- Sequence and delivery. Prioritising concurrent tasks and bringing work through to dispatch.

Application note
I am applying from independent practice.
I do not yet have three years of professional journalism experience. I would welcome the chance to demonstrate my reporting through a writing test and to develop through close editing.
GOLDLEVEL remains the separate independent practice through which I publish and steward longer-term work.
