Gabriela Alvarez Correa Camargo

I have experience in a unique area of written communication, which is writing consultancy. was among a select group who had the opportunity to participate in the knowledge exchange between writing centers in the US and Colombia. I have been a writing consultant here in Colombia since 2018, and one of my missions during my time as a visiting scholar in the U.S. was to bring good practices. As an intern in the U.S., I directed sessions with students from diverse backgrounds and fields of study. I managed to adapt each session to their needs and prioritized the most important concerns first. During this experience, I enhanced my multicultural awareness and understood further how important it is to promote equality and inclusion messages. Being surrounded by writers from all over the world made me feel joyful and made me learn further from different world views and languages. I also deeply enhanced my English writing and speaking skills. I am an internationalist with a passion for development and communication across cultures.

Additionally, I have experience working closely with the communications area of different organizations. When I was working for an NGO in Colombia, I supported the organization of webinars with international allies for the implementation of good practices regarding the protection of the marine ecosystem, and the involvement of local communities in the Providencia and San Andrés islands. I helped implement a system for the weekly social media audience reach. I also wrote daily copies and posts. Finally, I proofread and edited several types of documents in the organization such as sales brochures and scientific documents like coral fragmentation manuals.

Finally, I am an active written content creator myself. I am posting constantly on my blog, where I write book recommendations and short inspiring abstracts, and I also write from my personal experience as a woman living with Turner Syndrome, to raise awareness and to help my audience know more about my condition, and how it has shaped not only me, but all women and girls living with TS too.
