About

I am a doctoral candidate in English Literature at Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, Dwarka. My research interests lie in posthumanism, gender studies, critical theory, and speculative fiction. I have completed my Bachelors and Masters in English Literature from the University of Delhi, and Master of Philosophy in English Literature from GGSIPU, Dwarka. I have worked as an editorial intern for the international peer-reviewed journal Language, Literature, and Interdisciplinary Studies (LLIDS). I have presented papers at prestigious international conferences such as the IASA World Congress and SFRA Conference. My research has been published in the SCOPUS-indexed journal Critique: Studies in Contemporary Fiction.
