Summary
I have almost 4 years of writing and editing experience, combining freelance and part time work throughout college, along with my current full-time role. I have written mainly about finance, investing, and commodities, but also about emerging markets equities, cryptocurrencies, technology and sustainability and macroeconomics.
My articles have been shared, published and cited across websites such as The Wall Street Journal, Capital.com, 9fin, the Hague Centre for Strategic Studies, MetalsDaily, Metalworld, Metals Focus, Mining Press, Mining Review Africa, Bitcoin.com, Mint State Gold. Apart from English, they have also been translated to seven other languages.

I am also skilled in data visualisation tools such as Tableau, Power BI, MS Excel and Adobe InDesign, as well as SEO tools such as Google Analytics, SEMRush, and Mangools.
