Neytra Jayaraman

I would like to nominate myself for this role because, frankly, I am already chronically online so I might as well make it productive.

I spend an arguably concerning amount of time on Instagram, so I understand what is necessary to keep engagement high and the consistent flow of posting new pieces for our loyal readers. I’m confident in editing content to make it more suited to digital platforms without losing the original voice of the writer.

This role requires a hectic flow which I am more than happy to make my main priority even over uni work (thank god). I have experience with photo editing software beyond Canva (including Photoshop), and I’m comfortable thinking about visual layout. Viewership relies on translating writing to online, I will keep this up!

I am incredibly reliable, and the vigorous news cycle is something I would throw myself into. Behind the scenes, I would ensure articles are published promptly, working alongside the editors on a daily basis, and creating a general weekly schedule of release to adhere to. 

The Cheese Grater has been a source of consistency and immense joy for me since joining, and I would love to reflect that back through this role, with the committee. I love the idea of keeping The Cheese Grater’s online presence as speedy and dependable as the publication itself, ensuring its brand of undisputed student journalism reaches people before their next doomscroll.

In short: I’m organised, and yes, very online. Vote for me!!
