diana, 

She can always be found with a book in her hand, her mind steered away from reality. A great lover of philosophy, she spends her free time asking all sorts of questions. To her, knowledge is life’s ultimate pursuit, and she yearns to truly live. She dabbles in everything creative—sketching, photography, playing the cello, and most importantly, writing. As an ambitious student, she hopes to study business in the future, but also to never leave the creative side of life behind.

She is a 17 year old aspiring writer and avid bibliophile from India. A curious cat, you will find her either curled up with a cup of coffee and her playlist blasting while she wanders the alleys of her mind or devouring the existence of cinematic bliss. 'Change is the only constant in life' is her mantra as she explores the world with a creative eye. She will start her under graduation in Psychology this fall.

parnali, design team

Pranali lives somewhere between a blank page and a half-designed canvas—always dreaming, always creating. She’s a writer at heart, a designer by passion, and a reader by obsession. Her curiosity often drifts seaward, whvere she finds wonder in marine biology and the mysteries of the ocean deep. Equal parts romantic and realist, she delights in the little things—the swirl of steam from a morning cup, streetlight reflections on rainy nights, or the poetry of a shared meal inhaled with joy.
