## About

```text
At Goethe-Institut Karachi, I coordinated educational projects to strengthen German language education and environmental awareness across Pakistan. I worked with teams in South Asia and Germany, and coordinated with German language schools.

I also coordinated initiatives including youth camps, Pakistan’s first climate-neutral city simulation, and conferences for educators. At KOICA, I represented Pakistan as a WeKO Global Ambassador and created content for campaigns and official social media platforms promoting ODA initiatives.

As a freelancer, I developed content for clients and managed social media calendars using Canva and Zoho Social. My other work includes academic research on service operations and supply chains, and contributing poetry to the Climate Courage guided journal.
