Summary
I'm a student currently pursuing Masters in English who aims to build a career in the field of creative writing. I have dabbled in various activities such as attending a poetry workshop by Miss Megha Rao, participating in Summer Camps in National Science Centre, being a part of drama and debate societies in school and college, etc. I have also taken part in various story-writing competitions, the most recent being an international competition organized by The Written Circle in 2021 (The Written Circle is a literary offshoot of The Catharsis Magazine). Along with being shortlisted, my entry for the competition will also be featuring in their anthology due early this year.
In my free time, I like reading books, watching movies, tv shows and anime, listening to music and playing basketball. I also enjoy writing stories and reviewing the creative works that I consume.
