"After completing my law bachelor's degree in India, I pursued a master's program in international relations at the National University of Singapore from 2019 to 2021, and then worked as a research analyst at the university for six months."
"I quickly realized I was too right-brained for the job, and that corporate life did not feel right for me. The hours were long and demanding."
"I didn't want my weekend to be an escape from my 40-hour workweek. I started writing religiously when I moved to Singapore, and only in Hindi."

Yadav began writing in Hindi while living in Singapore, driven by the anxiety of adapting to a new environment, ultimately leading her to embrace her passion for writing.
