Soniya Nadgauda

At The Akanksha Foundation, I support the Executive Director and Board President across executive administration, board activities, stakeholder engagement, travel logistics, and fundraising operations in India and the United States.

I manage calendars across time zones, coordinate domestic and international travel, prepare board agendas, presentations, reports, and minutes, and help leadership prioritize commitments. I also coordinate programs, fundraising campaigns, and events involving volunteers, youth participants, donors, and community partners.

Previously at Anarock Property Consultants, I partnered with city leadership on scheduling, travel, regional reviews, town halls, office expansion, vendor relationships, procurement, and facilities operations. I joined during the office's early stages and supported its setup and growth through workspace readiness and day-to-day operational processes.

My earlier work at CBRE included administrative reporting for approximately 700 employees, vendor coordination, facilities inspections, travel support, and cost-control analysis. I began my career in cabin crew roles with SpiceJet and Etihad Airways, where I built a calm, service-focused approach in fast-paced, multicultural environments.
