Age: 25
Home Town: Dehradun, Uttarakhand
Education: Bachelors of Mass Media and Mass Communication, University of Delhi and Masters in PR & Advertising, University of New South Wales, Sydney
Specific Field Interests: Role of communication in social development with special focus on education and academia
Placement: Purbanchal Maitri Development Society (Guwahati, Assam)
Area of Focus: Livelihood

Highlights: I got intrigued by the idea of the 'need for clear, concise and creative interpersonal communications skill for social development during an internship as an undergraduate. The idea turned into firm belief as I traveled, read better and observed the nuances of various cultures across the world. I started my career with the marketing team at ELLE India in Mumbai which helped me widen my perspectives and hone my skills as communications personnel. Post my Masters program in Australia, I continued my stint at ELLE India, Delhi and simultaneously conducted communications training sessions at media institutes in Delhi over the weekends. Most recently, I was busy exploring public relations for technology brands and enjoyed every bit of challenge involved in it but when I came across AIF, I was excited to see a chance to revert to my desire to work for the development sector. I applied at AIF in a pursuit to realize my passion and feed my senses with many more brilliant experiences. On the side, I hope to continue evolving as a writer, reader, baker and explorer.
