About Parth Sonecha

I have a Master's Degree in Journalism from Monash University and a Bachelor's Degree in Mass Communication from the University of Mumbai. Apart from this I also have experience of working in the field of Media and Communications. I currently work for Mackay Tourism as their Communications Officer, managing internal and external communications for the organisation. In addition to that, I also help the organisation fill out Federal Grants, manage media stakeholders and create and compile major projects. Prior to that I was at Mojo News where I worked as a Journalist for 2 years, creating content across multiple media platforms and eventually rising to the position of Deputy Sports Editor. I also helped launch 2 shows, The Struggle, a political satire show that was based for Gen-Z viewers and aired on C31,  for which I worked as a Researcher and Camera Operator from its very first episode, and Halftime, a sports talk show, that I presented and produced.

This comes on the back of my time working as a content writer for Sportswallah, where I covered the 2017 Confederations Cup and as a copywriter for an advertising agency in Mumbai, where I handled accounts of Mercedes Benz and Jet Privilege. My team won the Golden Gong for designing the official loyalty program of the Jet Airways while also managing to design the Communications Package for Mercedes Benz at the Delhi Auto Show. This previous experience has given me the chance to hone my skills in the field of Communications and made me proficient in multiple softwares including but not limited to Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Audition and Microsoft Office.

Halftime Huddle

With a keen interest in sport, I managed to start my own sports talk-show on Mojo News. On this show we focused the life story of atheletes and the sacrifices they needed to make to get the level they are at while also presenting news with a unique twist, through eyes of social media. The show topped three-thousand viewers each episode and was released on the Mojo News website.

Documentary filmmaker

As part of my foray into video journalism, I created a short documentary on Sydney, a friend who taught himself to listen and speak. You can click on the image to see the full documentary.
