Summary

In addition to my academic achievements, I bring over 5 years of experience – a full spectrum of duties, responsibilities and project types. Having started my professional growth in a start - up firm, for the first couple of years I gained a generous amount of experience in operating a firm. From designing – delegating, presentations – execution, supervision– promotion of projects of various types and scales in small and big cities. With the agenda to expand my knowledge beyond residential and commercial architecture, I joined my second workspace which gave me the opportunity to learn about office interiors. My work experience has made me an agile team player and a proactive learner who can quickly develop skills in any area that requires assistance.

However, I also offer supplementary skill sets that may be of interest

1.Marketing, Promotions and Business Development

At my previous firms, I have participated in Website design, Content writing , social media promotions , creating office portfolio & award submissions. My research & communication skills can be an asset whether required for an occasional affair or in a broader role managing the office affairs.

2.Business and Project Management

Working in a small/young firm, I have learned the in’s and out’s of managing an architectural business. I have attended work conferences representing my organization, carried out responsibilities as a team leader and seen project operations up close from commencement to grand openings. During my tenure as a freelance designer, I worked on small scale projects for various clients. As a solo entrepreneur, I provided design solutions and most importantly maintained maximum client satisfaction.

3. Operations Executive

Took up a part-time job as Operations executive at Active Fitt – Elite Fitness and wellness Club for Women in Chennai, from March - June’22 to understand and analyze the work methodology applied to build a clientele for an organization from the point of view of an entrepreneur. Key responsibilities included strategic planning and management for brand empowerment, advertisement, client handling, executing studio operations and finance planning.
