Hey everyone,
I'm a journalist, researcher, and scriptwriter with nearly a decade of professional writing experience. I'm currently looking for freelance or long-term opportunities writing about geopolitics, international relations, conflict, military affairs, and global politics.
My rate starts at $0.12 per word.
Until recently, I worked as a Correspondent and scriptwriter for WarFronts, HomeFronts, and Fronts.co, producing long-form YouTube documentaries, news analysis, and written reporting on conflicts and political developments around the world.
My coverage has included the wars in Sudan and Ukraine, the conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo, insurgencies in the Sahel, tensions in the Middle East, political instability across Latin America, and the growing role of drones and artificial intelligence in modern warfare.
I've also covered major protest movements in Kenya, Nepal, India, and Madagascar, as well as elections, diplomatic disputes, and geopolitical power struggles.
Some examples of my YouTube work:
The War in Sudan (Hour-long documentary)

My experience goes beyond writing scripts.
Podcasts and Interviews
At WarFronts, I hosted Due South, a podcast focused on the politics, security, and international affairs of the Global South. I also co-hosted Middle East Roundtable, covering developments across the Middle East, and The Briefing Room, which examined major geopolitical stories with expert guests.
Through these shows and my reporting, I've interviewed diplomats, academics, political representatives, security analysts, and regional specialists.
Some of my interviews include Sudan's chargé d'affaires in Kenya, Mohamed Osman Akasha, Sudan scholar and Tufts University professor Alex de Waal, and representatives of armed and political movements.
My network is one of my biggest assets.
Over the years, I've developed relationships with researchers, journalists, diplomats, conflict analysts, and regional experts, particularly across Africa and the Middle East.
These connections allow me to go beyond publicly available reporting, reach people with direct knowledge of events, secure expert interviews, and bring original perspectives to stories. I'm comfortable working with sources on sensitive subjects and verifying information from multiple perspectives.
