The ability to write like Ian Fleming and knowledge of cities such as Seoul, Shanghai, or Tokyo a plus.ย 

Depending on the individual's skills and interests, your duties will include the following:ย 
- write interviews of members

- produce blog posts in online magazine

- writing copy for our newsletter

- writing marketing and product copy for your website

- duties as assignedย
