What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry role in digital journalism where I can report, write, and manage social content. I want a newsroom-like environment that values accuracy, fast learning, and strong storytelling.

I’m a journalism student with hands-on experience in digital reporting, social media management, and content writing. I bring a keen eye for detail and a strong interest in current affairs and storytelling.

As a Social Media Intern at Lokmat Times, I supported strategic content development while covering major events, strengthening my real-time reporting and digital news dissemination skills. I also contributed to growth, increasing X followers by 200+.

Beyond internships, I’ve taken editorial and social leadership roles, including Editorial Head/Director work for college and club media initiatives. I enjoy shaping narratives, aligning posts with what audiences need, and guiding newsroom-style workflows.

I’m certified in Digital Journalism (Reuters) and continuously building my craft through feature writing and investigative journalism. I’m excited to join a team where I can combine reporting accuracy with engaging, audience-first storytelling.
