About me

My educational background Media and Public Relations has given me a solid understanding of PR, journalism and film. My current work experience as a Marketing Executive has helped me understand how campaign development, customer acquisition and competitor analysis work. My role in the company is to provide clients with measurable campaigns and gather daily data to provide instant feedback, analyse competitors and the current campaigns on the market. I was also into the direct marketing team which was done through social media, events and residential campaigns. My professional work in the fields of public relations and social media taught me various ways on how the industry works having me trained in fields like media mapping, client communication and handling, organization of press conferences and daily media tracking. I also worked in the field of social media where I learned how to implement social paid media campaigns analyzing market research by using online services other resources like Google Analytics with SEO and how to manage creative and production teams to develop social paid media strategies.

Apart from that, I have also represented the School of Media and Communication in the Middle East Educational Fair 2016 and guided new students on various courses. During my time in undergraduation, I have worked with the Dubai International Film Festival 2015 and 2016 as a reporter and a content writer and Sharjah International Book Fair 2015 and 2016 as a pressman and a podcaster. As the pressman, I was responsible to ensure the completion of the news stories along with celebrity interviews, forum discussions, screenings and other red-carpet events. I even wrote news stories and articles and edited the sound podcasts of the celebrities. I have also worked for UAE's technological fair GITEX, wherein I worked with electronic brands as the sales representative and increased product sales by 48%. They have trained me to work with set targets and under extreme pressure.

I would hope to meet you soon and discuss any job opportunities you have. Thank you for your time and consideration.
