Results-driven International Relations student with event coordination expertise.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven International Relations and Diplomacy student with a strong foundation in corporate services, stakeholder engagement, and event coordination. My experience includes a marketing and PR internship at Next Media Uganda, where I honed my skills in writing, editing, and managing social media content for various brands. I successfully contributed to digital marketing strategies and created engaging content calendars, showcasing my ability to adapt and thrive in dynamic environments.
In addition to my internship, I gained valuable experience at MTN Uganda, where I collaborated with the MTN Foundation team in event planning and stakeholder engagement. I played a key role in organizing high-profile events, managing RSVPs, and conducting beneficiary interviews for community initiatives. My volunteer work with Education Accelerators Limited further solidified my event coordination skills, as I led student volunteers at the Uganda National Student Convention, ensuring successful execution and media coverage. I am passionate about building relationships and fostering collaboration to achieve organizational goals.
