The Journey of a Writer
With a long-standing passion for writing, Keshav initially started as a hobbyist before transitioning into freelancing. Over the years, he has explored various niches, including fiction, but his longest and most profound engagement has been with the cryptocurrency sector.
Educational Background
Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from the prestigious University of Delhi (DU). Initially, he aimed to build a career in Physics, but the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic altered his plans. The shift to online classes during the pandemic provided him with the free time to delve into other interests, which eventually led him to professional writing.
From Beer Money to Professional Projects
What began as a quest to make some extra money quickly turned into a fruitful career. Keshav started landing significant projects, making it clear that writing was not just a hobby but a viable profession. The opportunity to earn a living doing something he loved was a dream come true.
Balancing Physics and Writing
Although Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022, his passion for the subject remains undiminished. He plans to return to university to pursue a master’s degree in Physics, driven more by personal interest than career aspirations.

With his scientific background, Keshav ensures that the concepts he discusses are clear and well-explained, helping readers gain a deeper understanding.
Hobbies and Interests
Outside of his professional life, Keshav is an avid football enthusiast, both as a player and a spectator. He also has a keen interest in anime and video games, particularly single-player adventures. Among online games, he actively participates in EA FC (formerly FIFA) tournaments and has achieved semi-pro status, often winning prize money.
Learning and Utilizing Japanese
Keshav’s love for anime and games led him to self-learn Japanese, enabling him to enjoy untranslated content. This skill also proved useful during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic when he took on Japanese-to-English translation gigs.
Commitment to Fitness
Fitness is another significant aspect of Keshav’s life. His workout regimen focuses on agility and acceleration, crucial for his football performance, as well as traditional strength training to maintain overall fitness.
