Welcome to my web folio!

My name is Matilda, and I am a History major in my final year at the University of British Columbia, where I have been participating in an
intensive writing course (ENGL 301). In this course, I have learned valuable new skills such as writing a memo, proper email etiquette, conducting the perfect peer review and compiling a research report. The course has allowed me to build on my research and writing skills and become an even more confident writer. You can access all my best works from my technical writing course on my web folio. Hopefully, the pieces will demonstrate to prospective employers the writing and editing skills I have been developing throughout my four-month intensive course.
