About
English major at Delhi University with 3+ years of experience in editorial writing, entertainment journalism, and digital storytelling. I bring an intuitive understanding of cinema, television, and pop culture; with the ability to write thoughtfully, analytically, and accessibly across genres. I have a proven ability to write stories that connect, whether it's celebrity news, film breakdowns, listicles, reviews, or long-form features.
My strengths lie in AP style writing, SEO optimization, headline crafting, and working seamlessly across digital content management systems (CMS). I'm also a published poet and an award-winning filmmaker, having written and directed short films and scripts that have been recognized at intercollegiate festivals. With a foundation in literary study and a passion for pop culture, I approach writing with both critical depth and a creative voice.
