Here is how Annanya describes herself:

Presently an English Lit major at Lady Shri Ram, I first started writing at the age of 13, and haven’t stopped since. Writing and content creation is something that I am not only passionate about also strongly consider it as a revolutionary tool that can bring the slightest and the greatest of change.

When not writing, you will probably find me overthinking at an isolated café midst lavender hues and Indie music, writing poetry or taking aesthetic photographs or brainstorming the next big thing for my startup. I am also an avid reader and take delight in constructive debates on almost anything and everything, including politics, philosophy, feminism, and mental health.

Having worked with 15+ brands as a professional content creator and marketer, my writings have reached millions of impressions. You’ll find my bylines in Times of India, Live Wire, AIESEC, and DU Beat.

Possibilities not limits. 

Just a slight change from, “I can’t do this” to “How can I do this?”, brings a whole lot of difference in. Decesions in short run compounds in long run.
