ABOUT ME

My Story

My name is Zakkyya and I am a Business Content Curator. What that means is I help you, through the written word, engage your audience more effectively by writing and editing your communications.

 

I am a  seasoned communications professional having worked in public relations and communications for nearly ten years. In 2004 I graduated with honors from Paul Quinn College with a BA in Communications. Later, I received my Masters in Management from the University of Redlands.

Not only do I have a passion for writing, but also I have a passion for helping others enhance their communications to create attention-grabbing, professionally-written content. In my pursuit to help you, I work collaboratively to ensure your  “voice” and style of message is consistent and true to you.

As a content curator, I am committed to helping you connect with your audience through clear, concise and creative communications.
