What I'm looking for

I seek a long-term position in a dynamic organization that values creativity and offers opportunities for professional growth.

With over a decade of experience in content management and development, I have honed my skills in creating engaging and informative content across various platforms. Currently, I serve as a Creative Content Manager at Vista Media, where I oversee more than 70 websites, focusing on online writing, editing, and digital marketing strategies. My role involves crafting blog articles on diverse topics, including economics, finance, and technology, while also managing social media outreach and SEO efforts.

My previous positions have equipped me with a robust understanding of project management and quality assurance. As a Research Associate at IIM Lucknow, I contributed to the creation of annual reports and marketing documentation, while my time at Ascezen allowed me to lead documentation efforts for IT projects. I have a proven track record of collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality content and ensure adherence to established processes.

Beyond my professional endeavors, I am passionate about volunteering and contributing to social causes, particularly in animal welfare and education. I believe in the power of storytelling to inspire change and am committed to using my skills to make a positive impact in the community.
