About

Hi, I’m Nikita, a communications strategist and marketer 👋🏻 I currently lead marketing and communications at Kulfi Collective, where we're building brands at the intersection of content, community, and culture. We partner with the world’s most ambitious brands and platforms to create content experiences, IPs, and campaigns that make a dent in culture. My expertise spans brand building, storytelling, editorial, PR, and social—rooted in an understanding of where the internet is headed, how Gen Z behaves, and why culture matters. I’ve worked across global markets and formats—start-ups, creative agencies, and media networks—shaping perception and strategy. Whether it’s launching a new brand, running a campaign, or building a platform, I bring an editorial mind, a marketer’s eye, and a storyteller’s instinct to every project. Proud Georgetown and Xavier's (Mumbai) alum! Always happy to chat about culture, comms, or what’s trending on the internet this week.
