Payal, a student team member of Inside IIM, is currently pursuing MBA from IIM Calcutta (2020 batch). She is also a Post Graduate in Advertising and Public Relations from Indian Institute of Mass Communication, New Delhi. She was born and brought up in Guwahati and if you do not see her watching sitcoms or incessantly chatting with her friends, you would definitely find her writing or painting. A dire coffee lover- she believes there's more caffeine than blood in her veins. Probably, you would even see traces of it when you read some of her works (mostly poetry and fiction) here: www.payalphukan.wordpress.com

Glad that you could relate :)
