Mahima Jerhul

Mahima grew up in the Island of Mauritius - a dot in the Indian Ocean - where conversations begin with strangers and culminate in stories. Despite studying Economics and Legal Studies now, she remains fascinated by the quieter side of life: the people we pass everyday, the places we overlook and the ordinary moments we take for granted. She writes creative nonfiction in the hope of preserving these fleeting encounters. In 2026, her work was recognized internationally as a finalist in the Global Peter Drucker Challenge.
