Lila Shroff Email & Phone Number

Lila Shroff is a Assistant Editor - Science, Technology, and Health at The Atlantic. She possess expertise in social media, spanish, broadcast journalism, web design, radio broadcasting and 9 more skills. She is proficient in Spanish. Colleagues describe her as "Lila is beyond impressive. She spent a summer working with the public radio Northwest News Network digging into jail healthcare contracts and jail death reports. Lila elegantly synthesized dense legal documents and lengthy investigative records. But more importantly she deftly analyzed the information and identified and highlighted important trends, data points and anomalies. In a very short period of time, she became our jail healthcare contracts expert. Lila is a self-starter, enterprising and fiercely mission-oriented. She’s also a delight to work with and a fantastic team-player. She wowed us!" and "If you have the chance to hire, work with, or admit Lila, snag her immediately. I've had a career where I've gotten to attend some of the best schools in the world and work with some of the most talented minds in the world in tech and policymaking. Even as a high school senior, Lila stands out among them. I managed Lila the summer she interned at my startup, Glow. We brought her on board to assist with our blog. Lila's writing and analysis skills are top-notch, so it's no surprise that she took on the first few tasks we gave her with ease. By her second week on the job, it became clear that her capabilities extended beyond turning outlines into blog posts, so we started giving her additional projects. By the time her summer was over, she had taught herself how to use multiple programs in the Adobe Creative Suite to create marketing materials for us, performed first-of-its kind research on the podcasting industry, and had been featured on the front pages of multiple industry publications for the analysis she had done. She managed our presence at a conference from half a continent away, did market sizings that rival what you might get out of a McKinsey consultant, and negotiated prices with vendors down a silly amount. And, she did it all enthusiastically (and somehow, while she was also attending nighttime classes on philosophy). Lila's obviously smart and talented, but what makes her stand out is her resilience and persistence. There's no project I could give Lila where she would think to say, " I can't do that." If she's given a goal, she figures out how to achieve it. Here's one example: we needed a marketing video, so we put Lila on the task. We spent half an hour in front of a white board brainstorming each frame, and put Lila on the task. Lila didn't have previous experience video editing, but a week later, came to us with a colorful, captivating animated video that we still use. We had a couple of edits, so I leaned over Lila's shoulder to talk through which frames we needed to adjust. She opened the program she used to create the video, and to my surprise, she had created the video by building the most complex powerpoint presentation the world had ever seen. She didn't know how to do it, but she figured it out. And it looked amazing. We saw this kind of persistence and scrappiness time and time again while Lila worked with us. If you end up hiring Lila, I'll be jealous. This girls' going places, and I'm thrilled to be a part of her journey."
