I pen true stories that touch hearts and open minds. I wear many hats: reporter, writer, editor, designer, videographer, photographer, blogger, podcaster. For 25 years, I've crafted impactful stories for well-known magazines in India such as Swagat, Outlook Traveller, Life Positive, and more. From tabloids to coffee table books, I love creating content that engages, educates and inspires. Every word, every image on my website, queenoftreasures.com, tells a unique story that I put my heart and soul into.
My philosophy: When you flow like water, every rock is penetrable. Writing is serendipity.
