Nishtha Ranka
@nishtharanka
Senior social media and graphic design professional, combining photography and content strategy to drive brand growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a creative Social Media Manager, Graphic Designer, and Photographer, focused on promoting brands, engaging audiences, and driving business growth through strategic, revenue-focused social media initiatives. Currently, as a Freelance Social Media Manager, graphic designer, and photographer, I handle social media content and design for brands such as Ankur Capital, Rhythm, and UAE baby brands like BÉABA, UPPAbaby, and Done by Deer. I create platform-specific creatives for posts, reels, and ads, and prepare end-of-the-month performance reports.
Previously at Every Last Detail, I served as a Junior Team Lead, managing teams and client coordination—from social media planning to reviewing ads, promos, and digital assets. I led end-to-end work with creative briefs, shoots, asset delivery, and performance reporting across platforms, and also worked as a Senior Graphic Designer and Social Media Manager on multiple brands including Nykd by Nykaa, Smartsters, and Shrishti. Earlier experience strengthened my campaign craft through visually driven social media campaigns, content calendars, reel editing/short video support, and UI/UX design collaboration—plus freelance photography where I conceptualised brand shoots and created Instagram reels and posts.
