Bridging Engineering to PR: A Personal Journey

From Wires to Words, a Boy with a Soldier in Hand to a Laptop - my journey from an engineering student to a PR practitioner has been a remarkable transition.

It all started during my second year of engineering,  the allure of social media captured my attention and introduced me to the world of Public Relations. I was captivated by the way PR professionals used words to create meaningful connections. However, explaining the concept of PR to my parents was a challenge, one I still haven't entirely mastered. Yet, I am eternally grateful for the opportunity they gave me to pursue my passion. My engineering journey was a treasure trove of experiences. Whether it was hands-onwas the hands-on practical work or diving deep into technical aspects, it taught me valuable lessons. It was during this time that I decided to follow my passion and chart a new course for myself.

Four years ago, I embarked on my journey as a freelancer in the entertainment industry. Stepping into this industry as a newbie was intimidating, but my previous experiences proved invaluable. I learned to navigate the world of social media, understand audience engagement, and collaborate with influencers. But my journey took an unexpected turn when I ventured into the realm of astrology. I honed my skills in tarot readings, face reading, and numerology, and even dabbled in Vedic practices. These new horizons expanded my knowledge and added depth to my expertise. My next milestone was joining Avian WE as an intern. This experience allowed me to apply my skills and knowledge in a professional setting. It was here that I realized my true passion for PR.

As I complete my post-graduation in Public Relations and Corporate Communication from SCoRe, I reflect on the ups and downs, the highs and lows that have marked my journey. But one quote has always resonated with me: "Change is necessary and constant." I've learned that it's perfectly okay to change the narrative of your life because your story is still being written. Life is not a rehearsal; just enjoy the limelight.

Looking back at my journey, I draw inspiration from my own growth and transformation. I'm proud of where I am today, and I'm excited about where I'm headed in the future. The transition from engineering to PR has been a profound one, and I've learned that embracing change can lead to incredible personal and professional growth. So, I continue to inspire myself, aspiring to reach greater heights in the world of PR. As I move forward, I carry the lessons from my engineering days and my experiences in PR and astrology. I know that every twist and turn in my journey has contributed to the person I am today, a passionatetoday a passionate PR practitioner with a love for words and a desire to create meaningful connections.

My journey from engineering to PR is a testament to the idea that our stories are always evolving. Life is an adventure, and I embrace every moment of it with enthusiasm, ready to script the next chapter in my career and personal growth.

However, in the backdrop of this era, tobacco companies, like the American Tobacco Company, saw an untapped market – women. But there was a formidable obstacle: changing the perception that discouraged women from smoking openly. Enter Edward Bernays, a pioneer in the field of public relations. Hired by the American Tobacco Company, Bernays had a vision – he aimed to orchestrate a cultural...
