“If you don't fall how are you going to know what getting up is like." - Reading this, it’d be pretty much evident how much I love and am in awe of Stephen Curry. His Warrior spirit flows right in my veins. Growing up in a household where basketball was worshipped, it was natural. I was bound to become either an NBA player or an NBA journalist. I chose the latter, because of my interest in Journalism as well. So I decided to repackage my enthusiasm and come here at EssentiallySports. Now, I am writing about NBA and the Warriors day in and day out. Being a basketball writer has been a joy ride for me, since I get to churn out fresh takes on players and team dynamics daily. Other than writing and NBA, my interests include reading. I absolutely love Nike’s founder Phil Knight’s biography - Shoe Dog. If you’re a sports lover like me, do give it a read. For more recommendations and Stephen Curry debates, hit me up!

“Good, better, best. Never let it rest. Until your good is better and your better is best” - Tim Duncan said this once, and I took it as a sign to keep working on myself, without fail! Being a basketball player all my life, it was natural for me to eventually become an NBA writer at EssentiallySports. Being a Spurs fan, I fell in love with Duncan and McGrady for making me the fan I am today. Their dedication to their field inspired me to never give up, despite my knee surgeries. Today, as an NBA writer, I get to share my unique perspectives with the world. The fact that I actually get to write about the things that I love, especially while getting to watch them live, it something I love about my job. With San Antonio landing a cornerstone for their franchise in Wembanyama, make sure you are paying close attention to Spurs-based pieces. When I am not knee-deep into all things basketball, I am gaming. I love PUBG, NBA2K and Forza Horizon. Want to have a spirited debate on my articles? Hit me up on the links below.

“Not only is there more to life than basketball, there’s a lot more to basketball than basketball” - Jackson had a simple philosophy when he was coaching the Lakers. He wanted everyone to succeed and grow in the service of something bigger than themselves. This is what struck me the most. A simple, badminton player accidentally fell in love with basketball so much that she decided to become an NBA writer at EssentiallySports. My love began after I started watching LeBron James highlights and his gameplay was so refreshing for me, I had to utilie my English degree to start writing about him and the sport. Today, as an NBA writer, I am writing for not just Lakers but many other players and teams, sharing my passion with my son and my daughter. But when I am not writing, you’d find me on my couch watching Lucifer, Grimm or even Bridgerton! Want to know more about me? Hit me up on the following links:

"Don't be afraid to fail. Be afraid not to try." - This is my favorite Michael Jordan quote. Here I am, an NBA Editor at EssentiallySports. My first reckoning that I actually like NBA was while watching The Last Dance with my cousins. Being the youngest, I was actually forced to watch it. And I am glad I was; they got me hooked to old Jordan clips online, and that’s how I fell in love with the NBA world. Currently I am curled up in my blanket on my couch, hoping that the Warriors win the season. And when I am not watching matches, I am whipping up interesting NBA tales for you to enjoy.
