Pls, can I apply?

I'm a graduate of Mathematical Science with a knack for research. I work as a freelance writer and translator on iwriter as well as Moravia.

I have handled various projects relating to contemporary political and social issues. Just last month, I helped a group of MBA students, in Canada, write their research papers on "The Political and Social Effects of Climate Change on the People of Canada".

My key strength is that I read wide and able to write about a wide range of topics in social discourse. I'm also a very good researcher having being trained to investigate and solve complex problems.

It'll be a great honour to be considered for this role.

I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks.
