Achievements
THE DUBAI LYNX CREATIVE HACKATHON
Amongst over 60 applicants from various universities around Dubai, 20 students were selected to participate, and I was one of them.
We were required to create a solution to a client-led brief by Aurora 50. Along with a team, we created an IMC campaign to bring awareness of inclusivity in the workplace. The campaign consisted of social media posts, a PR stunt, videos on TikTok and more. We presented the campaign to other teams and a group of honourable judges.
This competition was truly a valuable experience, it allowed me to develop my team collaboration skills, my leadership skills and presentation skills. I am beyond grateful I was a part of it.
THE ICCO UNIVERSITY PR WORLD CUP
Being selected to participate in the ICCO PR University World Cup was an incredibly rewarding experience that I cherish deeply. Representing Middlesex Dubai among 30 other universities worldwide was not only an honour but also a testament to our team's dedication and talent.
Collaborating with my teammate, we embraced the challenge of creating a PR campaign to inspire action for climate change, a cause close to our hearts. It was a transformative journey where we honed our strategic thinking, communication skills, and ability to work under pressure.
Being recognized as one of the six teams highly commended for our campaign was a proud moment, affirming the impact of our hard work and creativity. This experience not only bolstered my confidence and improved my public speaking skills, but also instilled in me a deeper sense of purpose and commitment to effecting positive change through communication.
STUDENT LEARNING ASSISTANT
Being selected as a Student Learning Assistant (SLA) for Middlesex Dubai was not only an honour but also a profoundly enriching experience that contributed significantly to my personal and professional growth. Having been chosen twice for this role due to my academic excellence, I had the privilege of supporting instructors in facilitating class sessions, and workshops focused on Brand Management and Creative Advertising for university students. This opportunity allowed me to provide individualized assistance to students, offering guidance on course materials, assignments, and projects. Through these interactions, I honed my communication and interpersonal skills, building strong connections with students, faculty, and staff alike.
This experience not only deepened my understanding of academic content but also fostered a sense of responsibility and leadership as I helped guide fellow students on their academic journey. Overall, serving as an SLA was a valuable experience that equipped me with invaluable skills and insights, shaping me into a more capable and empathetic professional.
