In addition to my studies for my degree in Media Writing and Production, I also held many on-campus jobs, such as Manager of the Video Production Team and Web/Media Coordinator for the New Juniatian. Here, I built up my skills in video/film production, directing, editing, and writing across various mediums such as for scripts, news, editorials, and more.
