My journey as a sports writer could not have been more hyperbolic. Growing up, I
buried myself in books and could not play any sport I wanted. So, I channeled my
passion towards watching them extensively and imitating the players. My Master?s
degree in Applied Psychology helped me understand the dynamics and thought
processes of athletes. I enjoy watching the interviews of my favorite athletes
as much as I enjoy their games. Gaining athletes? perspectives helped me
understand their gameplay better and why they chose a certain shot or made a
specific decision. As an English literature and Journalism graduate, I tend to
research extensively and store a lot of information that threatens to exhaust my
memory. At ES, I have focused on writing elaborate perspectives, reporting
interviews, controversial topics, and coresport news along with the occasional
pop culture article. Movies, series, fiction, food, music, and painting are a
few of the many things that keep my sanity in check. I highly anticipate
current-generation tennis champions to spice the game up and create more
on-court rivalries. I hope Coco Gauff, Iga Swiatek, Jannik Sinner, Taylor Fritz,
and Carlos Alcaraz achieve their best and carve a place for themselves among the
tennis legends.
