hi, i’m anu.
I’m a 31 year old, Dubai bred, Arsenal fanatic, partially-bearded, cricket enthusiast, entrepreneurial Indian that loves F&B marketing. Oh and I also love chai.
My childhood was spent in the narrow lanes of 90’s Bur Dubai, playing cricket with my friends and watching the city blossom into a global tourist destination. Fast forward 20 years and after completing my Masters in Birmingham, I decided to give back to the city that had given me so much. My content production journey started with a full-time Marketing position at an established agency, where I was immediately thrown into the online presence of Dubai’s melting pot of brands.
Over the past 8 years, I’ve had the opportunity to work as part of various marketing teams for multiple homegrown and international restaurants, corporates, interior designers, real estate developers and brokerages. Jones the Grocer, Azadea Group, Artique Design Studios, Webeleaf, Dettol, Bombay Bungalow, Leen’s Cafe to name drop a few.
While I’ve studied marketing (with a few Google certifications too), I was always curious to explore how I can leverage my abilities to bring a person’s or brand’s story to phones and laptop screens. This curiosity motivated me to pick up a camera and expand my skillset to cover photography & videography.
I’ve had the chance to work with some of the most creative and innovative people in the last few years, learning and growing along the way. And I look forward to working with more such people.
