A Bit About Me
As the Director of Marketing and Communications at Experience Commerce, a digital agency under Cheil Worldwide, I have made remarkable contributions to the company's brand building efforts in a relatively short period of one year. With a strong focus on external communications, public relations, and employee branding, I have played a pivotal role in driving the growth of the organization.
With over 13 years of experience, I have had the privilege of collaborating with esteemed companies such as Prime Focus Group, Prime Focus Technologies, Regus India, and Tijaria Group. Specializing in the dynamic field of Media and Entertainment, I have had the opportunity to work with renowned clients including Future Group, Unilever, Adani, Motorola, Vice Media, Disney, MGM, Trailer Park, BBC, Channel4, and A+E Networks.
Guided by a personal code that revolves around Communication, Confidence, Clarity, and Gratitude, I strive for excellence in every aspect of my professional journey. This philosophy has not only shaped my approach to work but has also been instrumental in delivering exceptional results.
My dedication and expertise have been recognized through numerous accolades, including the prestigious Trailblazer - PR and Communications Aces awards by Indian Television, as well as the SHE 2023 award by Agency Reporter. I have also been privileged to share my insights and thought leadership through published articles in prominent publications such as ET BrandEquity and Afaqs.
Beyond my professional endeavors, I am fueled by a deep passion for travel and writing. I have contributed captivating travel blogs to Destination India Magazine, where I aim to capture the essence of my adventures. Additionally, I am adept at creating engaging digital content that encompasses travel and lifestyle topics. As a certified yoga practitioner, I advocate for a healthy and balanced lifestyle centred around yoga.
Giving back to society is a core value that I hold dear. I actively engage in various corporate social responsibility initiatives, including the Nanhikali project and Samidha Jaipur. Moreover, I am committed to environmental sustainability and actively participate in green drives and Swacch Bharat activities, with the aim of creating a more sustainable world.
With a perfect blend of creativity and professionalism, I am dedicated to making a positive impact in both my work and personal life. I am driven to consistently exceed expectations and contribute meaningfully to the success of the organization and the well-being of the community.
