## About

```text
At Gateway Educonnect, I conducted counseling sessions aligned with students’ academic preferences and career goals. I guided them in selecting programs and universities and assisted them in building profiles for international education.

As an Admissions Officer at De Montfort University Leicester, I prepared offers after checking student profiles, supported timely enrollment, and counseled prospective students. I also coordinated between agencies and the university.

Earlier, I handled recruitment at Metro Retail Pvt. Ltd and supported hiring at Mangali Enterprises Ltd. My B.A. (Hons.) in Social Work and internships at New Delhi YMCA, Navjyoti India Foundation, AIIMS Trauma Center, and Safdarjung Hospital gave me experience in counseling, group work, and case work.
