Nikhila Kotni

Hello there! I’m Nikhila. Although my work designation says I’m a software professional, I always wonder what more I can be? I try or experience things that I’m curious about. If I can’t try them, I create the experiences by writing, illustrating, or sometimes both. I always try to make the readers feel alive in these worlds that I cried, smiled, lived and created. Do enjoy my work!
