Non-Fiction
Currently immersed in fiction, I’ve previously written articles and personal essays that have appeared in print and online publications across Australia, India, and the US.​ I’m passionate about telling stories that dig deep into the nuances of gender, culture, and belonging. Whether it's championing the voices of women authors and change-makers, capturing the untold stories of queer lives, or dissecting the gender politics in startups, I see my writing as an effort to tell stories that deserve more than the margins of our collective attention.
​
My writing aims to steer the conversation away from Big Voices, to bring the less visible to the forefront, and to explore how our individual stories intersect with larger cultural movements. For me, storytelling is a powerful act of connection—one that has the potential to shape our larger story and create spaces where every voice can be heard.
