I’m Apeksha Nichrelay, and I’ve been working in digital content since 2018, with a degree in psychology, journalism, and English. I also completed a film and television program at NYU Tisch. Over the years, I’ve covered human-interest stories and written extensively on family dynamics, kindness, and workplace situations. I focus on creating relatable, engaging stories that reflect real-life experiences and human behavior. I’m also a co-author of Poetica, a poetry anthology.
When I’m not writing, I’m usually cuddling my giant dog (who has no sense of personal space), feeding my guinea pigs (who think it’s feeding o’clock all day), or discovering underrated artists.
