More about Shyla Batliwalla
After graduation from the University of California, Irvine with a degree in International Studies and Spanish, I realized my true calling was to be a wordsmith. Living in almost a dozen places around the world has made me obsessed with discovering new cities and new ways to enjoy life. Albeit clichéd, my heart has always remained with my family and friends in the San Francisco Bay Area.
I am fanatical about food (cooking it and eating it), reading trashy British novels, writing stories with below-the-brow humor, painting Bombay taxicabs, elephant paraphernalia, and dancing to Madonna. I am currently happily working as an Editorial Coordinator here at DivineCaroline. I love being a part of the innovative, fiery, and hilarious women on our fabulous site!
One day I hope to run a marathon, have six-pack abs, and my own show on the Food Network. (Clearly, I am a believer in dreams, even impossible ones.)
