About Tina Khatri
I am an experienced and versatile communication professional with over a decade in journalism, book editing, education, voice narration, and storytelling. Based in Indore, India, I have spent my career crafting compelling content across print and digital media — from daily newsrooms to published books, from classroom mentoring to AI voice training.
My work has been published through Leadstart Publishing, Amazon, Google Play Books, Apple Books, Kobo, and Feltrinelli. I have edited books for authors across India, reported for The Free Press Journal for over ten years, mentored more than 200 international students in public speaking and writing, and contributed voice and linguistic data to AI training projects. I also run tinakhatri.in, where I write about education, heritage, and community stories in Indore. I am deeply committed to storytelling that uplifts, educates, and connects.
