Monica Patel — Associate Partner
I make boring industries impossible to ignore. Oil and gas, government policy, energy, wellness, etc., are not exactly industries known for great storytelling. But that's exactly where I thrive. Every brief I pick up, I look for the unexpected angle, the human detail, the one thing that makes a complex subject suddenly click. That creative instinct is how I work, not something I switch on for the right project. I started out as a journalist and that instinct never left. I still chase the real story, the simpler angle, the line that makes someone stop scrolling. At the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, I had the freehand to put all of it together: 60% organic growth, podcast projects and reels crossing 2M+ views, campaigns that made energy policy feel relevant to everyday Indians. I write copy that engages. I build narratives that are relatable. But more so, I genuinely love doing it for industries that most creative minds run away from. If your industry is complex, niche, or needs a fresh voice, well, that's my kind brief. Let's connect!
