On Diwali, we pray to Goddess Laxmi to bless us with peace prosperity and wellbeing.Why does a section of Indians kill unborn girl child?Anyone who has refused to love and honour the women of their family and refuses to celebrate the birth of a girl child forgets that Maa Laxmi is a woman.
October is the month of the girl child.October 11th is celebrated the world over as the #Internationaldayofthegirlchild.The best way I can do my bit is to support the mothers who were once girls and still dare to dream.

An experienced marketing professional with an in-depth understanding of BFSI sector, Tammana is busy scripting a success story of her own at her terms. She is scripting a career which can very well become a model for many working moms in future.

Having spent almost fifteen years in the industry and rising across the ranks to reach a leadership role in brand building, strategy and customer experience, motherhood beckoned Tamanna and she took a sabbaticcal to care for her family.

However, her sharp acumen for brands pulled her each time she saw a campaign and analyzed how it could have been more effective and she decided to plunge back into her passion but in a manner that allowed her to balance time and family. Currently, she is helping companies script their brand stories by delivering on customer promise as a consultant.

She brings to the table an experience of collaborating with external partners and working tie-ups, building customized properties for brands. Her skill-set spans across marketing in ATL, BTL, Digital, Activation, PR, Partner/ Distributor and Internal Communication.

She has won industry awards for phenomenal performance in creating unique customer experiences. She was awarded the Young Achiever of the Year Award, 2016 at the 7th CMO Asia Awards for Excellence in Branding & Marketing. She was recognized as one of the Top 10 Promising Young Marketers 2015 by the Exchange4media Group. She was also awarded the Most Talented CMO’s of India 2014 citation by CMO Asia. Apart from these, she was a part of the Indian delegation selected for the South East Asian Youth Forum hosted in Japan in 2004.

A Post Graduate in Business Administration with specialization in marketing, Tamanna has also undergone an Executive Education program at ISB on Re-inventing Marketing for CMOs. A firm believer in giving back to the society, Tamanna has been a volunteer with Adarsh Foundation and Jesus cares.

She stays in Mumbai with her husband Saurabh who is also a marketing professional and son Vedveer. Her passions include reading, traveling, jewelry making and baking.
