I also go by Mehak.
I'm currently a freshman at NJIT where I'm majoring in BSc in Computing and Business.I'm making this website to build an online portfolio for myself.
So about me; I'm a coder. Being in a computing science major, I'm highly inclined and thoroughly enjoy coding. It intrigues me whenever I read a new problem and excites me when I get the correct output.

Other than the obvious liking towards coding, I also love to read. I believe reading novels, starting from The Dairy of a Wimpy Kid to books like "Room" and "Shatter me" series, has helped me build on my creative and artistic side a lot more. I found my love towards writing through reading such novels. I'd say my most favourite genre of novels is fantasy. A fun fact about me is that I have till date, never read or watched anything from the Harry Potter series.

I started writing around the age of 16. Starting from short stories about young women my age, I went on to realise I'm better at writing rhymes. I have by now, tried my hand at almost every kind of mainstream rhyming scheme, but have failed to write a p oem with no rhyme to it. I've always found rhymes easier to read and share which in turn makes it easier to write. It also makes me feel like it's making more of an impact on the reader's minds than a short story might. I am now a writer at the Nucleus Yearbook at my University.
