About

Hi, I’m Berikis Okpanachi, a dynamic communications professional based in Abuja, Nigeria. I specialize in strategic communications, crisis management, and multimedia content creation with a proven track record in the power sector and corporate communications.

With over 3 years of experience in communications, I’ve developed expertise in social media strategy, administrative excellence, and stakeholder engagement. My work has consistently delivered measurable results, including 50% increases in social media engagement and 85% improvements in operational efficiency through process automation.

Currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Mass Communication at Nile University of Nigeria, I bring both academic rigor and practical experience to every project. My background spans from communications strategy development to event coordination, multimedia content creation, and crisis communications.

I’m passionate about storytelling, visual content creation through videography and photography, and leveraging technology to streamline communications processes. When I’m not crafting compelling content or managing stakeholder relationships, I enjoy exploring creative writing and staying updated on industry trends.

I’m always excited to connect with fellow professionals and explore new opportunities to create impactful communications solutions. Let’s collaborate! 📢
