Professional Experience: |
As a Communication Specialist with four years of experience and well-founded education, I bring strategy development, communication skills and project management proficiency to your organization.
I have worked as a PR practitioner, news reporter and content writer at flagship media organizations. I am acquainted with wearing many hats, I have to, when working with a diverse clientele, while thriving in a climate of zero error tolerance and deadlines. Using creative ideation and leadership skills, I have developed media campaigns, communication strategies and organized events; the launch of ACER laptops, Dubai road safety campaigns, and publicity stunts.
While, being a journalist, quick thinking and a keen eye for stories have become second nature. I have written various stories and interviewed different personalities –Princess of Saudi Arabia, IMF spokespeople, Chairpersons and protesters at the Arab Spring. I offer: • Creative, cogent writing in diverse formats • Market research • Organizing events, media briefings, and conferences • Building working relationships with media, clients and associations • Interviewing relevant leads • Social media promotion
Having worked across different countries, I bring refined interpersonal skills and professional ethics to your organization. I have recently relocated from Chicago to New Delhi, due to my spouse’s diplomatic posting at the American Embassy. I am excited about a long-term commitment, and would love an opportunity to talk more. My work portfolio can be viewed on www.akbarinazneen.com.
