The way I write and approach research has been shaped (bless me!) by many incredible people. These individuals can be grouped into three categories: researchers, authors, and mentors. They’ve created websites, shared their struggles through blogs, published their work, and, from these varied sources, I’ve learned so much. Their journeys have inspired me in countless ways, and now, I feel it’s my turn to pay it forward. 😊

Late 2015, I took a break from a decade-old (perhaps) successful marketing career to devote more time to the craft of writing.
During this break, I graduated from the Screenwriting Program of the New York Film Academy in New York. my first book, 'Buffering Love' was my 4th attempt in 12 months to write something that I feel, could have a breathing life in the world, instead of it gathering rust on my machine.
The stories are inspired by my personal experiences with apps and saw the light of day thanks to Penguin Random House.
Prior to taking up the (near suicidal) decision to pursue writing, I was the Marketing Head for PUMA India for 4 years.
