KATRINAkaeCARRIEDO

Creative Wanderwoman

My outgoing personality, strong ability to work with others, and completed education make me a strong candidate for your company’s applicable position.
I am currently residing in Whistler, BC I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication Arts majoring in Media Production. My education has provided me with vast exposure to the media and communication world, as I am a professional media/AdWoman and copywriter/creative. I have also just completed a two-year Post-Baccalaureate Degree on Hospitality Services Management at Douglas College. In line with social responsibility and effective communication, I also have been applying my love for animals through volunteer work and even creating my own cat foundation in my hometown (@thekatcloset).
Having a passion for animals and professional application in the creative world, namely, photography, art/painting, music, filmmaking/directing, and creative writing, I am a willing learner who is up for anything and any adventure that would come my way. I am a patron of the arts and often attend theatre shows, as well as being athletic and loving the outdoors—during my downtimes, I love hiking, trail running, and wall climbing. I was an active leader and member of my school’s tennis and badminton varsity team (both in high school and college) and capable of teaching the basics to beginners. I have the open-mindedness, skills, and determination to embark on a career in the field I am applying for and I would like to be given the chance of acquiring extensive skills and experiences through the company, as well as add my own value to it.
A few of my strengths lie in creating marketing concepts for events, advertisements, scriptwriting, and art direction. I have a knack for words and creative writing and have sold a few artworks back in the Philippines I am a newspaper features writer advocating for supporting local art and artists.
