BACK TO THE HOMEPAGE

Editing & management

 

I previously worked as deputy editor of Speak! Magazine, the lifestyle youth magazine published under English-daily paper The Jakarta Post. During my time as deputy editor, I reported directly to the head of The Jakarta Post’s editorial department. My duties involved spearheading the magazine’s monthly budget, delegating writing assignments, organizing cover story photo shoots, and writing and editing articles for the magazine.

Here are samples of some of the magazine’s issues.
