Professional Summary

I’m a digital marketer with a focus on content creation and social media marketing. Currently based in New York, I’ve had incredible opportunities to work with clients around the globe. I write on literature, food and drink, travel, the arts, urban life, people, career, and other stuff.

My professional experience includes multiple roles handling content writing, copywriting, content marketing, branding, and social media in the field of media, travel, and technology, spread over 8 years.

As a Social Media Content Lead at Licious (CPG), a frozen meat-selling brand, I designed and executed a successful campaign that led to a 7% increase in product sales on the launch day. This campaign, ‘You Could Be The Next Brand Ambassador,’ was nominated as one of the best product launch campaigns in 2018 by Social Samosa, India. In my three-month term with the brand, the social media community grew by 15% across channels (Facebook + Instagram) owing to campaigns like #MadeWithLicious & #TheRightForTheLeftHanded.

My association with the Global Brand, Xiaomi Technologies, involved coordinating and working with teams internationally- writing content and driving Mi TV marketing campaigns to increase site traffic. This multicultural experience helped me adapt a sense of willingness and capacity to understand and integrate competing perspectives into existing ideas.

Writing travel for HolidayIQ, a leisure and travel brand, my role was a mix (75%/25%) of brand content creation and curation for the audience.

Reporting to the Brand Director, my role as a Content Strategist with Paperboy Online Private Ltd (media, news aggregator) entailed me to be responsible for everything content. This included conceptualizing, writing, scheduling, and publishing compelling marketing content to drive app downloads and grow the online community.

If you peered into my brain, you’d find a list of tasks. ‘Prioritize’ is my mantra. As a volunteer for the American Marketing Association, New York Chapter, I serve on the Executive and Networking programs, creating copies for post-event blogs, social media, and email marketing.
