Gayathri MR
@gayathrimr
I build scalable student success, admissions, and mentorship systems that improve educational experiences.
What I'm looking for
I've supported student outcomes across admissions, mentorship, and campus operations, building practical systems that make guidance, accountability, and support more consistent.
At Ashoka University, I supervised 60+ Resident Assistants and Mentors serving 2,000+ students. I designed training curricula, SOPs for 1,000+ campus events, and systems supporting safe, equitable experiences for 2,400+ students.
At the Vedica Scholars Programme, I managed end-to-end admissions for around 120 admitted scholars and coordinated communication with 2,000+ prospective students. I also supported financial-aid communication for students and parents.
My work in gender, sexuality, accessibility, and adolescent education includes piloting workshops for around 300 adolescents, co-developing curriculum guides, and creating an accessibility guide for students. I'm interested in education planning, programme evaluation, curriculum design, and student success.
