About me

Gender Female
Industry Education
Location New Delhi, Delhi, India
Introduction I’m into education. Was born and raised in Delhi, which is India in miniature. It’s my confused existence in this multicultural, multiracial and multilingual place that has made me a humanist, I think. My educational background has trained me to think in English (the Indianized version). I love Hindi but like most Delhiites, my Hindi is a confused mixture of many Indian languages. So, can’t write in Hindi. However my knowledge of Hindi and my Indian sensibilities never cease to meddle with my English. For a creature like me who prefers opening her mouth only to teach (for which I’m paid), writing is important.And I have chosen English as the medium because it is the only language through which I can express myself. Hope you like my work!
