successfully. .This art of understanding the strategizing the different aspects of an event and simultaneously

After high school, I was really undecided what course to purse, so I took some years to decide on what I really
want to do in my life. During gaps, to keep myself productive, I worked as Senior Office Assistant in Oscar
Event and Entertainment in Nepal. While working there I learned how events are managed in a discipline way
and how we should take the responsibilities of the whole event. I think the knowledge can be very helpful
while I work as a professional Event Manager . All of these experiences have taught me to work in a team and
handle pressure at peak time such as end of fiscal year.
