She has built a dynamic career leading high-impact initiatives across education, media, corporate strategy, and public affairs, working for some of the region’s most prominent education and corporate networks.

Her portfolio includes strategic messaging, brand storytelling, high-profile events, crisis response, stakeholder engagement, thought leadership, and media and government relations.
