Senior Project Manager | Communications, Editorial and Public Relations

I oversee editorial operations and end-to-end project delivery across Brownbook, Arabic Numerals, books, international exhibitions, and cultural initiatives. I manage projects from concept and creative development through production, installation, and final delivery.

I independently manage Brownbook's editorial planning and publication, lead the editorial function for Arabic Numerals, and oversee books authored by Ahmed bin Shabib and Rashid bin Shabib. I coordinate authors, designers, production teams, commercial stakeholders, and external partners while managing schedules, quality, budgets, risks, and deadlines.

I lead a team of six and deliver projects across international locations including Tokyo, Venice, Switzerland, and Germany. My work includes projects associated with the Venice Biennale, Geneva Watch Days, Watches and Wonders, Vitra Design Museum, Dubai Design Week, and Dubai Watch Week, as well as advisory projects with UAE government entities.

I served as the communications and administrative lead supporting senior diplomats while delivering consular services for Brazilian nationals and businesses in India. I drafted press notes, speeches, newsletters, presentations, briefing materials, correspondence, memos, letters, and reports for the Ambassador and Consul General.

I led the Consulate's COVID-19 crisis response from 2020 to 2021 for Brazilian nationals stranded in India, coordinating communication and information flows with Brazilian and Indian authorities under intense time pressure. I also planned public diplomacy and business events, managed senior calendars, meetings and budgets, trained new employees, and handled confidential consular documentation and services.

I planned publicity strategies and campaigns, wrote press releases and client presentations, and responded to enquiries from the public, media, and partner organisations.

I organised press conferences, exhibitions, open days, and tours; monitored media coverage; commissioned market research; and reported campaign progress to clients and management. I worked with journalists, clients, and internal teams to manage budgets, timelines, and campaign objectives.

I supported public relations and publicity campaigns through press release drafting, presentation preparation, press-event coordination, and media coverage analysis.

I assisted account and communications teams with campaign administration, stakeholder coordination, and research while developing experience in agency-based public relations delivery.

I wrote articles, interviews, and reviews on a broad range of subjects for Goa Times. I reported live on city events and delivered copy to daily newsroom deadlines.

I developed strong reporting, interviewing, research, editorial judgement, and concise writing skills while covering local events and public-interest stories.

I supported event planning, logistics, vendor coordination, guest management, and on-site delivery.

I assisted the events team with operational preparation and coordination to help ensure smooth execution of live events.
