About

Hey there! I'm Karan Mulky, and I have 4+ years of experience in the advertising industry, specialising in social media and digital marketing. I've recently completed my PGP in Technology and Business Management at Masters’ Union, and I hold a BBA degree (Marketing specialisation) from St Joseph's College of Commerce. My skills lie in marketing, strategy, communication, creative thinking, and stakeholder management. I am proficient in tools like Microsoft PowerPoint, Word, Excel, Canva, and social media analytics platforms. My career includes significant achievements in leadership roles. At Dentsu, I led online brand management for clients like IKEA and Adidas, delivering impactful campaigns such as IKEA's 'Ghar aajao,' which achieved over 10 million views across platforms. I come from a diverse academic background, having enrolled in programs from Masters' Union, St Joseph's College of Commerce (SJCC), The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), and Columbia Business School. I earned 1st Class Distinction during my undergraduate degree at SJCC. I have also won 1st place - Best Venture Pitch (amongst 20+ teams) at Columbia Business School's Venture for All entrepreneurship program. The winning idea was for 'Headshot' - a concept for a cafe with PC and console gaming at affordable prices. Outside of work, my interests lie in fitness, podcasts, technology, and popular culture (cinema, video games, music, internet trends). Eager to leverage my skills in marketing, strategy, and leadership, I am passionate about driving teams to innovation & success.
