Simran Shrivastava
@simranshrivastava
I’m a content strategist and multimedia journalist crafting audience-first stories with editorial precision and SEO-aware storytelling.
What I'm looking for
I’m a content strategist and multimedia journalist with 300+ published stories and experience covering 1,000+ press releases across leading Indian newsrooms, including The Times of India and The Hitavada. I bring editorial precision, cultural storytelling, SEO awareness, and social media fluency to digital-first brand voice.
As a Journalist & Content Producer at The Hitavada (Jun 2025–Present), I produce daily editorial content focused on culture, heritage, and community. I conduct on-ground research and interviews, translating complex local narratives into engaging, reader-friendly features while collaborating with editors to maintain factual accuracy under rigorous deadlines.
I’ve also worked as a Social Media Content Strategist at The Kevy (Oct 2025–Nov 2025), where I developed scroll-stopping social copy and short-form video scripts to drive measurable engagement lifts. I researched emerging trends and built thematic content calendars, crafting experience-oriented storytelling frameworks for Instagram and X (Twitter).
Earlier, I served as a Journalism Intern at The Times of India (Jul 2023–Aug 2023, and May 2025–Jun 2025), publishing 100+ stories across culture, lifestyle, community, and public-affairs beats. That reporting foundation continues to shape how I combine research, interviewing, and clean publication-ready writing into high-impact storytelling.
