But what do I exactly do?

But what do I really do?

Sketchy Scribble Text Accent Underline

On LinkedIn, I am a media professional with an industry experience of a decade ranging from journalism, copywriting, branded writing, IP building, creative direction, content strategy, screenwriting, video, TVC & web show direction, podcasting, show running, campaign management, team leading and many more such fancy things.


However, in essence, I simply crack ideas, tell stories and execute them end to end for brands, streaming platforms and anyone else who's willing to hire me for my services!
