Tanya Arora

I would describe myself as a creative, passionate, ambitious, and imaginative person. I started dancing when I was 14 and fell in love with it. Acting and movies are something I have always been drawn to.

I am interested in dipping my toes in all things creative. I do possess an educational background in management, however, I am looking for a career switch to a more creative one. I am interested in working and learning with creative studios in order to unleash my creative potential.

My core values are authenticity and empathy. I would love to work at a place that encourages authenticity and a display of honest emotions. In order to get closer to my creative dreams, I am interested in pursuing roles like broadcasting/movie/fashion production assistant or any other on-the-set roles where I get to learn more and get the opportunity to be in close contact with art and artists.
