About Author

Pheba's love for writing began in her high school but it was her interest in social justice that led her to opt for journalism as her course of choice.

When she is not busy scrolling her phone on a lazy Sunday, she likes to go for nature walks and car rides with her family.

Area of Interest

Loves journal writing, music, and reading books. Home decor is also one of things that keeps her creativity alive.

Education

Previous Experiences

She has been a feature writer for Scoop Upworthy for over 2 years. She started as a Chennai Correspondent for The News Minute for 2+ years and then went on to work as a Project Manager and Branding and Communication Strategist for two non-profits between 2018-2022.
