Prior to this, I have worked in Television as a Producer on special programmes. I can not only script stories and shows, but also shoot and edit videos independently. My specialisation in New Media gives me an extra edge in understanding graphics and design. I can work on industry standard graphic and design software. I have worked in both online and Television medium which gives me a strong understanding of the two varied mediums. In addition to my stint in news organisations, I also had the chance of understanding the business end of news organisations with my two different stints in exchange4media and MxM India respectively. I reported on stories on the business of news, advertising, radio, internet etc. and I also organised, executed and managed special business and media events. I got a chance to work closely with a team of professionals in organising these events and thereby got an opportunity to learn the different ends of event management.

Apart from the above, I have in the past taken up individual consulting assignments, one of which was a series of marketing videos to promote a book on Governing India by a UK based author.

I have a Bachelors degree in English (Literature) and a postgraduation in Content, Media and Management, with a specialization in New Media.
