Projects


The Constellation Group- Bristol, UK

As part of the practice track approach, I collaborated with the English Education Group, which specializes in assisting young children studying abroad and attending boarding schools. In-depth market research was conducted, with advertising tailored to target parents in the Middle East region. Improved interpersonal skills through regular communication with UK-based clients, resulting in a more nuanced understanding of UK work processes. Led the integration of digital marketing methods, utilizing social media platforms and online channels to broaden campaign outreach. Prepared and delivered a presentation to the English Education Group, which received a positive reception.


Alzheimer's Society- Bath, UK

As part of the practice track route, I helped with the Alzheimer's Society in Bath, UK, promoting awareness and finances through a variety of marketing platforms. Collaborated with local businesses to secure additional sponsorships, leading to a 40% increase in revenue raised. As part of a multicultural team, I led educational workshops and focused on communicating effectively with the charity. This work honed my skills in project coordination, event management, and fundraising methods, allowing me to successfully raise nearly £700 in a short period of time.

Participated in the University of Bath's Rotork Community Challenge, working with Fearless Charity to create and implement a fundraising plan for survivors of domestic abuse.

Four fundraising initiatives were carried out, and a time-bound fundraising event was created that exceeded set targets, resulting in a 20% increase in funds raised. Additionally, organized a community awareness session that attracted a higher number of attendees compared to previous events, contributing to raising around £400 within one month.

Volunteered with RISE, a Mumbai-based NGO, and actively participated in planning a citywide march to emphasize the importance of women's safety on Mumbai streets.
