Summary
I am a dedicated and compassionate social work professional with a Master's degree in Social Work from IGNOU, committed to promoting social justice, child welfare, and community development. With diverse experience across grassroots organizations, open shelters, and private sectors, I aim to contribute meaningfully to the rehabilitation and empowerment of vulnerable groups, especially children and marginalized communities.
My core interests lie in social advocacy, child protection, community mobilization, and education outreach. I am driven by a deep sense of social responsibility and strive to create sustainable change through field engagement, counseling, and awareness programs. I also have a passion for drama and cultural expression, using it as a tool for social awareness and communication.
I seek opportunities that allow me to grow as a social change agent, strengthen my skills, and work collaboratively with organizations committed to inclusive development.
