Hayzin Htike

I am an avid writer, pursuing a bachelor’s degree in English Literature with a Creative Writing Concentration and Comparative Literature & Thought at Washington University in St. Louis. With internship experience in writing, editing, and digital brand stewardship—as well as over three years of work for two student-led publications—I believe I would be a strong fit for this role.

As a Creative Writing student, I specialize in crafting a compelling narrative from almost any raw material. My internships and extracurricular experiences have helped me further hone this skill. As a Social Media Intern for Bookstr, I created and scheduled daily posts that promoted books and summarized our interviews with authors on various platforms. This taught me how to engage target audiences through both written and filmed content, while doing justice to the products and real people that I portrayed. Through co-writing abstracts (for Armour issues) and pitches to film agencies (for a prospective film adaptation of Die Sprache der Sonne), I have further practiced balancing eye-catching flair with the preservation of an author’s voice or a photographer’s vision. Thus, I would be a reliable extension and marketer of a company’s essence.

Additionally, I am well trained in using AI tools to maximize efficiency. Last year, I was individually recruited by the Arts & Sciences Data Analysis Director at WashU to collect and analyze benchmarking data on humanities departments from thirty universities within a month. This task strengthened my ability to use AI tools quickly and resourcefully on a short timeline.

By fulfilling my extracurricular responsibilities while working on-campus jobs and maintaining a 3.82 GPA, I have also strengthened my time management, communication, and versatility as a team member. I am eager to use my skill set to amplify the stories of Delphi’s innovations.
