I combined powerful storytelling with innovative digital marketing. I developed a series of impactful events to raise awareness and funds. In tandem, I project managed and co-wrote the script for a hard-hitting film to highlight the realities faced by girls in educational settings, showcasing the urgent need for change. The film was launched at a national cinema release with HNWIs and VIPs.
