I am Sehnaaz Khatun (Sheikh), originally from Odisha. I moved to Delhi and later to Pune, where I pursued my bachelor's degree. I then completed my master's in Global Luxury Goods and Services - Luxury Brand Management from SP Jain, with a certification from Milan.

I have successfully managed, strategized, and expanded markets for branded businesses, branches, and companies over the past three years. With a strong mindset and a positive approach toward growth, I have consistently demonstrated dedication and commitment to my work and the companies I collaborate with.

I strongly believe in trust, transparency, and strategic thinking, which have guided me throughout my career. My decisions are always based on research, analysis, and market insights, ensuring well-informed strategies.

I have mentored and guided over 30+ UG and PG students and professionals, especially in the luxury sector. I have also built a community of 25+ professionals, fostering valuable interactions. Additionally, I have provided guidance on intercultural relations, education, lifestyle, and country-specific business studies.

Wherever I go, I aim to identify gaps, add value, and contribute to progress—always believing in progress over perfection.
