About
I spent the last 4 years in the trenches of the UPSC domain, where my job was to take the world's most 'boring' and complex topics - Geopolitics, Economics, and Law - and turn them into simple, gripping narratives. I don't just write; I mine for insights that others miss and translate them into a tone that sticks.
