I am a content creator and content editor

I am a trained Kenyan journalist having graduated from the United States International University – Africa with a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism. I pursued a major in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in Print Journalism.
My relevant experience is diverse and establishes me as a favorable candidate for this position. My experience in the communication field is extensive.
Between the periods of April 2018 to December 2018, I worked at the Opera International Software as the Junior Content Editor Consultant for Africa. Here, I created content for various countries as well as edit content from the various news outlets that we had partnered with as Opera News. I was also in charge of sourcing content partners for Opera’s editorial products. In addition to this, I provided strategic inputs and feedback about the African content market direction. I created a team of 30 plus interns who I supervise in relation to content management. Through these interns, I approved which content should be pushed through the different African markets we dealt in which comprise of English, Swahili and French speakers. I was also tasked with creating a weekly rotational, working schedule for the interns. Other tasks that fell on my lap were finding and developing partnerships for Opera’s consumer browser services.
Within just 6 months of being at Opera I managed to lead a great, hardworking team which saw us win the Digital Online Campaign award at 2018’s Marketing Society of Kenya event. We won the award for the ‘shake and win’ online digital campaign which we carried out during the 2018 World Cup. I managed to develop and execute this idea as I was the first Opera employee in Kenya. I am proud of this achievement and very sure that I can attain so much more in a more competitive environment.
