Professional Experience

I am a freelance writer and photographer based in New York City. I am the editor in chief and publisher of the Literati, an online cultural aggregator. I would like to write about the vibrant arts and cultural scene in New York City. I am an avid gourmand, and cinephile. I have lived abroad and I am fluent in a few languages spoken in India. I am a political junkie and would love an opportunity to cover stories that are traditionally ignored by the media.
