Having born into a creative family with author parents, I was never held back when it came to career choices. Be it sports, photography, or science - my family embraced all my inclinations with open arms. While I have dabbled in many fields, sports has always been a constant in my life.

I have been a football fanatic since my school days and have also been the captain of Allahabad University team during my college days. Football has played a huge role in shaping the kind of person that I am today. For instance, the game has given me the guts to face difficulties, however strong the opponent be. Being a gold medalist in psychology, I decided to get into cognitive sciences for my masters. However, I had some health issues and was bedridden for almost two years. This was the toughest phase of my life when no one came to visit or comfort me, I lost touch with all my friends except one.

But, like a true sportsman, I learned to embrace my failures and channelize my angst to build something positive. I started to pursue photography and fell in love with it.

Today, in parallel to pursuing sports and working full-time with EduSports, I am the proud owner of an online photography studio.
