Pathways: Study, AI & Writing

About Sankhanil Mahanti – Career, AI & Global Education

I’m Sankhanil Mahanti, a career and admissions advisor with over 15 years of experience in international education, marketing, and student recruitment across India and global markets. I’ve worked with universities, business schools, and overseas education consultancies, helping students and professionals move from confusion to clarity in their careers, and from “I want to go abroad” to real admits and offers.

Today, I combine that experience with AI tools and data-driven insights to help you make smarter, faster, and more confident career decisions.
