Professional Experience: |
I develop content for different platforms (websites, social media marketing campaigns, corporate documentation) and execute the project 'Humans of TDI' (@TDIGroupOfficial).
Under competing deadlines, I produce well-researched content, in form of articles and blogs, on topics concerned with health and wellness, culture and society. I execute intensive secondary research and adopt different styles of writing (technical, scientific or casual) for different audiences (academia, hospital works, online wellness portals, etc.).
As an SME (Subject Matter Expert) in psychology, I generate academic material for high school and undergraduate students. I follow a structured way of addressing different question-types (multiple-choice, short-answer, essay, etc.) and provide high-quality content. Relevant topics covered: social psychology, gender and environment, psychology of health and human development.
I worked on the PHILAP (Public Health Initiative on LMIC's air pollution) project with an international interdisciplinary team of experts. I led ethnographic research (community-based fieldwork, in-depth interviews, case studies, illness narratives and transcript analysis) and was responsible for liaising with different stakeholders at various levels. I designed and executed the following tasks,
1. Recruitment of participants
2. Pilot Study
3. 15 months of fieldwork in New Delhi
4. Preparing regular field notes, translated scripts and project reports
5. Data analysis and interpretation
6. Interpretation and compiling research report.

Education: |
I have graduated with an M.Sc. in Anthropology from Hans Raj College, University of Delhi with a specialization in social anthropology. My post-graduate thesis "Perceptions of fertility in a Punjabi village" was based on ethnography of women's experiences with their sexual and reproductive health and wellbeing.
I also hold a B.Sc. (Hons.) degree from the same institution. I produced two field-based theses. I worked on socio-biological indices of a Bhil tribe in Udaipur, Rajasthan. I also studied mesolithic cave art in Sonbhadra, UP.
I did my schooling from Sadhu Vaswani International School for Girls, New Delhi and graduated with a degree in Science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Maths and English)
