Loretta Marie Perera
Loretta Marie Perera, known to most as Rett, has been a writer for most of her life. What started as birthday card poetry and primary school compositions progressed to a career in advertising where she worked as a creative copywriter in her hometown, Singapore, a lifestyle reporter in Beijing, China, and then a journalist in Moscow, Russia.
As Artec 3D’s Head of Content, Rett manages a team of writers as well as web and social media specialists. She works closely with the company’s video, design, and digital marketing departments to create a rich mix of content that absolutely deserves your attention. Another major part of her job is working closely with Artec’s PR agencies, and making sure the news and stories her team produces are getting the attention they deserve. Besides editing and coordinating, she enjoys talking to and writing about a variety of people and their adventures with 3D scanning – ranging from scanning people’s faces for customized healthcare solutions, art preservation, accessibility, and lots more.
In the night and early morning, however, Rett also continues to work on her own creative projects, which now include poetry, essays, and most of all, her first work-in-progress novel.
