International development careers and nontraditional paths
About me
I work at the intersection of international development, technology, strategy, communications, project management and digital platforms.
My own career path has taken me from sociology and outreach work at Amnesty International India to communications, stakeholder engagement, a master’s in international development policy and now work supporting technology-enabled development operations at the World Bank.
I enjoy speaking with students, early-career professionals and career switchers who are trying to understand how international development institutions work, what kinds of roles exist and how to position their own experience more clearly.
In these conversations, I can help you think through:
• Career pathways into international development
• Nontraditional roles at institutions such as the World Bank
• Positioning transferable skills
• Communications, strategy and project management careers
• Networking and informational interview strategy
• Graduate school and career transitions
These are informal peer conversations based on my personal experience and perspective. I cannot provide referrals, influence hiring decisions or share confidential institutional information.
