About Me

I draw comfort from words—whether it’s reading or writing them—which is why a career that revolves around crafting narratives and telling stories interested me early on in life. Over the past 10 years, I’ve explored food, art, travel, people, wellness and finance by writing and editing my way through.

In the early years of my career I worked in custom publishing and print media, ultimately shifting my sights to digital media, creating editorial strategies, content and social media for a range of clients.

When I’m not at work, I enjoy reading fiction, spending time with my cat, planning my next holiday, scouring the internet for exciting restaurants/food experiences and cooking up a storm!

How Mohammed Imran’s Flipkart Chai fuels Flipsters' dreams

Whether you brew it with ginger to fight sleepy mornings, or steep spices in it to soothe a cold — it is the perfect antidote to everything.
