The Karma Klub project was undertaken in a project management class at Boston University. Each team in the class was tasked with developing a project idea and learning how to bring it to fruition. My team and I conceived the idea of opening an upscale nightclub in Boston. Throughout this project, I gained valuable experience in project planning, event planning strategies, forming partnerships for Karma Klub, enhancing social media engagement, and app design creation. Additionally, I developed skills in team collaboration, leadership, time management, financial planning, market research, risk management, communication, creativity, technological proficiency, and customer engagement.
