Khushi Sharma

A recent graduate with a Master's in Promotional Media: Marketing, Advertising and PR from Goldsmiths, University of London, I have a keen interest in how Marketing and Brand Communications provide a voice to brands to effectively communicate their messages, especially in the ever-evolving space of social media. In a world where headlines meet hashtags, my inquisitive mind drives me to stay updated with the latest news trends. My goal is to contribute meaningfully to the industry by mastering the intricate balance between news, media, brand and communications.
