• At Brut India, the 21 videos I produced cumulatively garnered over 12 million views on Facebook and Instagram.
• Loopsider English did not have an editor at the time of my internship. Therefore, as the only journalist working for the channel I took control of the channel completely right from taking editorial calls to managing the channel’s social media presence.
• At Indiaspend, I worked closely with the Deputy Editor to create brand identity and redefine DataBaaz's social media strategy. DataBaaz’s videos garnered a cumulative 20 million views across all social media platforms and Youtube.
• I built a media presence for project Koshika and brought attention to the under reported socioeconomic challenges in the field area. This served as a strong case for the need for intervention when the final project proposal was presented to the funders.
