Passionate about creating meaningful impact through a diverse background in political research, project ideation, and sustainability initiatives. I have conducted rigorous primary and secondary research to understand the political dynamics of various entities and fostered collaboration with key stakeholders, executing central campaigns with precision. In my role at Nature's Orbit, I led innovative literacy programs and managed projects addressing the climate crisis, demonstrating a commitment to sustainable development. I orchestrated key events and engaged with local communities, ensuring a grassroots understanding of climate change challenges. As an intern at the Indian Political Action Committee and Natures Orbit Pvt. Solutions, I played pivotal roles in political research and project development. Additionally, my internship with the Assam State Rural Livelihood Mission involved a detailed impact assessment of Self-Help Groups towards rural development. Armed with a Master's in Social Work, specializing in Livelihood and Social Entrepreneurship from the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, I furthered my commitment to sustainability. My academic project focused on uplifting traditional Assamese jewelers, aligning with the ethos of promoting environmental sustainability and community well-being. My self-initiated project, "R-Cycle," involved preparing and establishing a large-scale cutlery plant to provide an eco-friendly alternative to plastic cutlery, simultaneously addressing agricultural residue challenges and creating livelihood opportunities at the grassroots level. I am enthusiastic about leveraging my skills in political research, project management, and sustainability to contribute to impactful initiatives that align with my commitment to community well-being and environmental sustainability. Let's connect and explore collaboration opportunities!
