I hail from Lucknow (city of Nawabs) which is the capital of the biggest state in India, Uttar Pradesh. It is a city well known for its delectable kebabs, biryani, and chaats, its chikan kari, and its tehzeeb. I did my schooling at La Martiniere Girls College, Lucknow – a prestigious school in India, which is also the place I developed a deep love for reading and writing. 

From Lucknow to Singapore – where I reside now – my life has sprung many challenges at me and at the same time opened up new and surprising doors of opportunities – one of them being by way of my career which steered 360 degrees from finance to content creation!

Armed with a Masters Degree in Commerce, I worked in the banking sector followed by the National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSEIL), one of the world’s largest stock exchanges. However, travel and motherhood made it difficult for me to continue with a full-time career in finance. I started writing again and soon what began as an assimilation and expression of experiences turned into a profession.

On the personal front, I am a mother to two boisterous boys – a teen and an almost teen. Besides writing, I am very passionate about my regimen of daily brisk walks and yoga. I have recently taken to trekking and am enjoying it immensely. I love traveling and planning family travels months in advance. I love listening to music and am somewhat of a closet dancer!  And last but not least, I love my morning cuppa of ginger tea, which readies me full-throttle for my day ahead!
