About Roshni

Where strategy meets cultural fluency

I'm an integrated brand marketing leader with 10+ years of experience executing high-impact, multi-platform campaigns across sports, media, entertainment, and consumer brands.

At ESPN, I built and led one of the largest social monetization programs in media — driving $100M+ in annual branded content and social commerce revenue across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Snapchat.

I've led full-funnel campaigns spanning paid social, streaming TV, digital, experiential, and influencer for global brands at Disney, ESPN, and FanDuel. I've also built commercial programs from the ground up at a venture-backed startup — scaling with limited resources and maximum creativity.

Today I work with agencies, brands, and founders as a fractional executive — bringing the firepower of a senior CMO without the full-time commitment.

My Approach

The RC Growth Framework

A proven five-stage methodology built from a decade of scaling brand programs at the world's most recognized sports and entertainment companies.

1
Diagnose
Deep audit of your brand, audience, competitive landscape, and current marketing performance.
2
Define
Clarify your positioning, target audience, key messages, and the commercial opportunity.
3
Design
Build the campaign, partnership, or content strategy — platform-native, culturally resonant, and commercially focused.
4
Deploy
Execute with precision across channels — paid, owned, earned, influencer, and experiential.
5
Drive
Measure, optimize, and scale what's working. Turn campaign learnings into a long-term growth engine.
🎯 Always Audience-First
Every strategy starts with a deep understanding of who you're talking to — their behaviors, platforms, cultural touchpoints, and what moves them to act.
🤝 Partnership-Led Growth
The best brands grow through relationships — with media partners, creators, and complementary brands. I build those ecosystems, not just campaigns.
📊 Revenue-Accountable
Marketing should drive measurable business outcomes. Every engagement I take on is tied to clear KPIs — revenue, reach, conversion, or retention.

Creator & Influencer Program at Scale

Reach Gen Z and millennial audiences who had moved away from traditional sports broadcasting — using creator voices they already trusted.

Commercial Launch at a Venture-Backed Startup
Early-Stage Consumer Brand

A venture-backed startup needed to build brand strategy, commercial infrastructure, and marketing programs from zero — with startup-scale resources and enterprise-level ambitions.

Established brand positioning, go-to-market frameworks, and operational processes from the ground up. Built the partnership and content strategy, stood up the marketing stack, and aligned the founding team around a commercially viable growth plan that could scale without significant additional headcount.
