Writer, Editor & Product Lead.

The Travel Intern (TTI) is a content marketing agency that specialises in all things travel.

In a nutshell: I crafted SEO-focused travel guides and itineraries, edited articles, mentored junior writers, and ideated content to meet client objectives. Below are a select few I’ve written. You can read the rest of my articles here.

Editing

Besides writing and planning trips, I guided junior writers and edited their articles for readability and factual accuracy. Where needed, I also worked with videographers to write and proofread supers. Here are some examples of what I’ve done:

Product Marketing

During COVID-19 lockdowns, we gave back to the community by making limited-edition masks.

As the Product Lead, I led a small team and reached out to CYC tailors, The Woke Salaryman, and Ninja Van to support our cause. I also spearheaded campaign marketing — creating the website, assets and social copy; integrating Shopify into TTI’s website; processing and packing orders for delivery, and communicating with customers.

Within 24 hours of launching, all masks were sold out. Demand was so high that we printed a second batch.
In all, we sold over 500 masks and raised over S$4,200 for Community Chest.
