Emma Paulet

I work as a technical writer and editor at a global company based in South Africa.

I have an MA in English Literature and a working background in:

• Lecturing in higher education
  • Academic Literacy
  • English Literature
  • English for Law
• Editing
  • Academic
  • Newspaper
  • Multimedia
  • Manuscripts
• Writing
  • Most recently financial education video scripts
  • Mentoring writers
• Course development and facilitation
  • Developed and facilitated a course in Digital Marketing
  • Facilitated courses in Business Writing
• Newsletters
  • I compile and send out an NPO’s monthly newsletter

I am an eager learner and good at working in teams or alone. I always pay close attention to the details, and this doesn’t only apply to my work; if there’s a tiny flower emerging from a crack in a slab of concrete, I have probably noticed it.

Whenever I get existential, which happens a lot under late-stage capitalism, I remind myself that my goal is to help others. Sometimes it’s directly, such as through my former volunteer work as a wildlife rehabilitator, and sometimes it’s indirectly, such as through making a user guide easier to understand. If I feel I’m helping in some way, I sleep better at night.

So, how can I help you?
