Susannah Alexander | MSc. Forensic and Legal Psychology | Erasmus University, Rotterdam. Ph: - Email:-Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/susannah-alexander-alex A researcher whose goal is to use her skill to produce change. A writer who pens blogs, articles and scientific papers to produce diverse outcomes. Research is about donating back to the community, aiding people, and finding solutions to produce impactful outcomes. I write reliably researched content for companies to build the ideal brand image to target audiences. My work has taught me to write inviting pieces catered to the context and characteristics of the targeted clients. I uphold a few essential factors when I deliver my projects: timeliness, quality and collective diversity. Collective diversity concerns the merging of multiple ideas in a group, acknowledging different perspectives, discussing each while being receptive to constructive criticism and learning from differently sourced ideas gathered for the same purpose. This is how I created effective content optimized to generate better sales leads and bridged the distant gap many companies unintentionally develop over time. A pen is all I need to make that happen.
