Kavya Sood

Kavya Sood is a Senior studying Statistics. She worked as a Social Media Marketing Intern for The Department of Philosophy at UIUC. Her responsibilities were to spearhead social media efforts for the department in order to achieve three goals: (1) create a community and space that students know they can go to for the latest news and updates, (2) raise awareness about the department's program offerings (major/minor), and (3) build relationships between students, professors, and alumni. She is currently working on building out a few content series related to job content and faculty content (faculty introductions, research, etc.). After graduation, she will work as an advisory associate and hopes to work in that field for a few years before transitioning into a marketing-focused role in the tech industry. Through her ATLAS internship, she gained experience communicating with an actual client, managing communication with a busy client in a professional manner, and improving her graphic design, writing, video editing, and independent decision-making skills. A fun fact about her is that she is a major foodie who loves trying foods from different cultures, and her favorite cuisine is Thai food!
