Experience As a Story
As can be noted, much of my employed life has been in the service industry. In all the places I have
had the opportunity of working, a lot of emphases has been on teamwork and organization, and it is
with these traits that I believe that I can work in any given project and work well with others. My
experiences in the various fields have enabled me to grow professionally and become a team player.
The epitome of my career in the Digital Media world has greatly been because of my experiences
working as a social media developer. It was during this time that I gained quite the experience to
build and develop profiles on the following platforms: LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. Additionally,
I have been able to develop content as well as design and produce e-brochure and newsletters, which
is beneficial in a career in the Digital Media industry. Consequently, this has equipped me to be well-
aware of how digital technology has leaned my skills more towards teaching and being more
business oriented.
