I’ve been an editorial writer at Bright Side since 2025, with over a decade of professional writing experience—and a lifelong love for storytelling that began the moment I could hold a pen. My work has appeared in both print and digital publications across India and internationally. I’m an advocate for empathy and a firm believer in love, which is why my writing often centers on kindness, compassion, and human relationships. When I’m not writing for Bright Side, you’ll likely find me at a yoga studio—or in the kitchen, happily undoing all those burned calories.
