“Everyone’s lives could have ended in an infinite number of ways. It’s never too late to pursue a dream.”
- Matt Haig, The Midnight Library
Brilliantly quoted by one of her favourite authors of all time, Matt Haig, Jahanvi’s childhood and teenage life has been filled with reading books and unsurely trying to write one. Books are her happy place and she would prefer fiction to self-help books any day. Libraries have always been a source of utmost fascination for her younger self, which has somehow led her to join as a Senior Content Writer at CollegeDekho.
Having completed her schooling at Delhi Public School, Ghaziabad, she chose to pursue an honours degree from the University of Delhi in the field of Political Science because of her brimming interest in domestic politics as well as international relations. However, her calling from the field of literature brought her back to the field of writing and she found herself interning as a content writer back in 2021.
Jahanvi now works as a part of the design field at CollegeDekho, helping students find their way through the various design entrance examinations that take place throughout the year. Owing to her experience as a content writer, she’s equipped with knowledge related to SEO writing, Creative Writing, Blog Writing, and Academic Writing. If we were to talk about her achievements in the field of writing,
Jahanvi recently published one of her poems as a part of a Winter Anthology through the publishing house - The Write Order. During her final year at college, she worked as the head of content for the Women’s Development Cell, which helped her to write about the ongoing social as well as political issues.
As for her interest in other co-curricular activities, she is a trained professional Kathak Dancer who has been practicing the art for more than 10 years. With a positive outlook toward life and her unyielding faith in spiritualism, she firmly believes in the quote, “Whatever happens, happens for good”, so, no matter how rough the terrain may seem, she always manages to find a brighter perspective to look at things.
