Zoey
graduated with a BA in Sociology and a minor in Communications from
Clark University. She recently completed her Masters in Marketing
Communications from Emerson College and currently works at a PR agency
in Boston. Zoey’s background in the creative and strategic aspects
of marketing and public relations gives her the perfect opportunity
to spearhead the marketing and PR activities for DP Boston’s
chapter launch. Zoey grew up all over the world and having never lived
in Bangladesh, she felt she wanted to get involved with Drishtipat
to learn more about Bangladesh and meet like-minded young expatriate
Bangladeshis who shared a similar goal in wanting to help improve
the lives of those less fortunate back at home.
