About Chitra N.

What do you want to be when you grow up?When I was a child, this question plagued me. A lot.My friends and peers? Could answer it without skipping a beat. They wanted to be doctors, engineers, lawyers, CAs – you name it, they’d want to be it.But I? I honestly couldn’t parrot anything like that, no matter how hard I tried.Yet I did know one thing though:No matter what, I always wanted to do something deeply creatively fulfilling. I wanted a job where every day was unique, exhilarating, and gave me a chance to learn something new.About two decades-ish later? I think my childhood self would be happy to see where I am, professionally. Today, I’m a data-driven brand marketer in the era of AI. Each day, I mix creativity with analytical insights to build impactful campaigns for brands that matter.Academically, my background is a potpourri of business, liberal arts, and business analytics, with a fair bit of German language learning woven in. I have a Bachelor of Commerce from R.A. Podar, a postgraduate diploma in liberal studies and leadership from Ashoka University, and an Advanced Management Programme in Business Analytics (AMPBA) from the Indian School of Business (ISB). Along with this, I have also completed the Goethe Zertifikat C2 and PWD certifications.While these programmes seem like puzzle pieces that don’t seem to fit in, each of these has helped me evolve as a global brand marketer with an AI-First mindset.My time at RA Podar and Ashoka helped me immensely in my first job as a Digital Associate at Hansa Cequity, a leading marketing technology company in India. From copywriting and inbound marketing, account management to brand strategy and social media analytics, I donned multiple hats and worked for over 15+ brands across retail, BFSI, automobile and manufacturing sectors.My tenure at Hansa Cequity also sparked my interest in the latest technological advancement in marketing such as machine learning, AI, and Natural Language Processing (NLP). This was where ISB’s AMPBA programme came in and helped me step up in a rapidly evolving, AI-driven world.Later on, as a Marketing Manager, I helped shape the brand positioning for Genpact’s $1 billion data, tech, and analytics businesses in APAC. Outside of work, I talk a lot, read a lot more, write a lot, lot more, and (sometimes, just sometimes) run a podcast called Roaring 20s.If you’re someone who loves talking about all things marketing, languages, AI and more? I\'d love to connect with you!
