Cyndi Parr Writing Portfolio

I have over 15 years of experience in marketing and writing through current and previous employment. I was the layout editor for our weekly university newspaper The Scribe, where I wrote articles, conducted interviews, designed ads, and did graphic design. I am currently the program designer for Dragon Theatre Productions, where I manage our social media, write press releases and speeches, and also do our poster and program design. As a playwright with local theatre, I have also written and produced 14 plays and 9 emcee scripts. Below are some excerpts from my work.
