The Pen is mightier

I’m Visshaael Patel!

Do you know when you hit those creative blocks that make you want to pull out your hair? Well, just as much as I love to write when I’m in the zone, I love hitting a creative block. See, that’s when I’m getting ready to brew two things: (1) a strong cup of joe and (2) the right set of ideas to work toward something incredible. With a deep understanding of various communication styles, I am confident I can deliver top-quality services for any industry or niche. My love for content development drives me to exceed expectations while leaving no stone unturned to produce perfection.

I’ve especially gained tremendous writing and editing experience by producing content for different platforms and media, both through voluntary service and paid work:

Wrote and edited articles and layouts for an international children’s magazine
Developed stories for local newsgroups
Created and tailored scripts, speeches and technical writing
Helped create a six-part docuseries to celebrate the 50-year milestone for BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha in North America.

While I have many interests in life, I am immensely passionate about all things wildlife and conservation. I currently serve as an animal care volunteer with the Back to Nature Wildlife Refuge & Education Center in Orlando, FL. The living world has a lot to teach us and we must do our part to protect it. In my next role, I want to further bridge conservation and communications so we may collectively come together to make meaningful changes.

Supplemental SKILLS

OFFICE SOFTWARE

Between volunteer and professional work, software such as Microsoft Office, Google Drive and Canva has become familiar to me. As a result, I can efficiently navigate various features and products to develop quality content.

Photography

As I continue improving my photography skills, I take pride in my passion for capturing the right photos to accompany my work. Taking the time to deliver exceptional visuals is of the utmost importance to me.

COPY & Photo Editing

With years of experience and sharp attention to detail, I provide editing solutions that would make your content stand out. From grammar and punctuation to meticulous photo editing, I want to ensure your content is flawless.

Data management

VLOOKUPs, pivot tables and basic formulas are just a few tools in my belt. Currently, I am helping create and manage a database for the modern world's newest, largest temple made of 1.9 million cubic feet of intricately carved stone and set on a 183-acre campus.

languages

Learning my mother tongue, Gujarati, I realized the beauty of linguistics. Languages have unique ways to express powerful thoughts that don't accomplish the same goal when used in another tongue. Hence, I recently began pursuing learning other languages, namely, Spanish, Italian and German. I am at a native-speaking level in Gujarati and conversational in Hindi.

Soft Skills

Soft skills can be seen as an afterthought, but I know they present incredible value in the workforce. With my skills in communication, creative problem-solving, adaptability and more, I'm confident that I can bring value to your team and help you achieve your goals.
