Prachi Khaneja
Student, Consultant, and Volunteer in College Station, Texas
A traveler by passion, a marketing grad in education, an entrepreneur on daughter duty, a vagabond in my heart.
I am a Masters student at Texas A&M and call College Station home for now. I consulted for a media PR firm in Austin, prior to which I ran my own Pvt. Ltd. start-up in India (offering customized leadership effectiveness training solutions). Also in the search for "my calling" I have been a Qualitative Market researcher for 3+ years and handled a $ 100,000 marketing budget for an Indo-American engineering firm in the semiconductor industry.
I'm a thrill seeker and a risk taker. I'm a keen observer of trends and a philosopher in disguise. The library I started building in 2006 contributes to my tangible net worth. The rest is happy memories of zip lining over cloud forests, rafting amidst the Himalayas, a road trip thru Sri lanka and other such.
I try my best to make the most of what is available to me, and focus on my circle of influence.
My latest projects are my MADbook (my Married American Dreambook (also a board on my Pinterest), my 1st ever Triathlon (will be my 29th Bday gift to self, last year - Feb. 2016 - I ran my first Half Marathon), an article I'm developing on 'The American Culture of Trust', publishing on Ideapod, and stamping my way thru USA's national parks (stamping my 4th of the 401 in Spring Break 2017).
I also occasionally contribute to a book review blog #ShelfishlyAddicted.
See you for a coffee/ conversations maybe? :)
