Education
Experience
From September 2022 to February 2023, I served as a scriptwriter for the Alux YouTube Channel. During this period, I specialized in crafting compelling and insightful video scripts centered around self-development and motivation.
My approach involved immersing myself in self-development literature to create content that seamlessly aligned with Alux's style and tone, all while offering actionable advice to encourage personal growth.
Notably, one of the video scripts I authored achieved a significant milestone by surpassing the 1-million-views mark within just 7 days, setting a record for the brand. This success was made possible through a thorough analysis of audience feedback and metrics, enabling me to continually refine my writing and actively contribute to Alux's mission of empowering individuals through self-development content.
During my tenure as a scriptwriter at Bored Panda from December 2021 to April 2023, I was responsible for conceptualizing and creating video content for arts and crafts Facebook videos. This role required me to generate captivating and imaginative copy to increase video engagement. I consistently showcased a profound grasp of the brand's creative direction, effectively transforming imaginative concepts into compelling narratives.
From June 2021 to October 2022, I served as a Lifestyle Writer at AfroCritik. My role involved crafting weekly lifestyle articles that covered a range of modern living topics.
I collaborated closely with the editorial team to produce insightful think-pieces on subjects like mental health, employment, and travel. Notably, I authored an article celebrating leading African women in tech for International Women's Day 2022.
One of my notable achievements was an investigative piece on "The Hyena Men of Northern Nigeria," which garnered recognition in Nigeria's literary and creative circles.
I also ventured into opinion editorials, discussing Nigerian comedy, the rise of skits, and the evolving landscape of stand-up comedy.
My writing spanned fashion, health, wellness, travel, food, relationships, and personal development, aiming to offer valuable insights, tips, and inspiration to our readers.
