I am Veathika, a multimedia content creator, social media specialist and communications all-rounder. Working across TV, radio, print and digital with experience in India, UAE and Australia; my experience spans content development, social media, production, communication, SEO and MCing events for more than 24 years.

I am now a Pilates, Tennis and Pottery coach. I’m also pursuing DJing as well as Kathak and Swing dancing. And selling my pottery pieces at different cafes in Brisbane.

The beautiful city of Brisbane is currently home. Adelaide was where I first landed in Australia in 2019. I was with Newscorp for nearly 5 years in both Adelaide and Brisbane. The cosmopolitan city of Dubai was home for more than 13 years, where I have worked in a number of media houses including 7DAYS Newspaper, City 7 TV, whichschooladvisor.com and Reuters covering financial markets and business news for CGTN and other international TV channels.

In addition to my journalism work, I ran a video website or vlog – as they call it now, dubai-dates.com that had everything about the vibrant city of Dubai on video. Through the website, I have filmed, scripted and edited more than 500 videos. It bagged the Best Asian Blogger award in the UAE by “Ahlan Masala” Magazine. It has now been renamed Vexplore on YouTube .

An avid reader, a passionate dancer and a very keen traveller, I have so far travelled to 80 countries. I am a firm believer in living life to the fullest and be it singing, dancing, pottery, pilates or paddle boarding (plus everything in between), I love anything and everything that ignites my creativity and excites my soul.
