Hello, my name is Holly Maraist. I have a BA in English with a concentration in Literature from the University of Mary Washington. I aspire to be a librarian in the future.

I am currently finishing a doctorate in political philosophy at St Anne's College, Oxford. I have a Masters in Politics from Brasenose College, Oxford, and a BA in Economics and Politics from York University. I have a keen eye for style and was nominated for a Guardian Student Media Award in 2009. I have also carried out editing work professionally for the Westminster think tank Politeia.

With over 14 years of experience in publishing and internal/external communications, accuracy and attention to detail are my hallmark qualities. My strengths lie in thoroughly researching a process to understand its value and uncover its weaknesses, then creating an effective schedule that carries a project from conception to completion. Furthermore, I thrive on working with teams, collaborating and developing ideas while maintaining a clear personal direction and responsibilities.
