I demonstrated creativity, first-class news-writing skill, persistence and a keen sense of compelling storytelling in a role that challenged and excited my enthusiasm for delivering effective and engaging journalism.The ability to recognise the news value of clients' operations and develop strong, compelling content was the most vital characteristic of my success at RTS Media.

During my time with RTS Media, I demonstrated a skill for video content production which led to me pioneering and helping establish the firm's video production arm. I take great pride in this achievement.
