About Sonia Dasgupta

I’m an award-winning storyteller at heart and a strategist by training and I’ve spent my career helping organizations communicate clearly, authentically, and with purpose.For more than a decade, I’ve led communications and digital teams inside some of the country’s most demanding news environments. Whether guiding a newsroom through a breaking national story or shaping digital strategy for a major brand moment, I focus on creating content and messages that truly connect with people.My approach blends narrative craft with analytics: I believe great communications start with a strong story, but they succeed when informed by audience insight and real data. I’ve built cross-platform content strategies, developed social campaigns, coached executives and talent, and led teams through high-pressure, high-visibility moments always with clarity, empathy, and intention.I’m especially passionate about helping organizations find their voice, tell compelling stories, and translate complex ideas into content that feels human. I love bringing structure to chaos, building workflows that lift teams up, and creating communications that drive trust, loyalty, and action.I’m exploring roles in strategic communications, PR, brand storytelling, social media, audience engagement, and digital strategy spaces where I can amplify meaningful work through powerful storytelling and thoughtful communication.
