Bio
Anuj Khurana
Chinar has been a very efficient & creative writer. I hired Chinar as a freelance writer & editor, and she delivered our requirements on time, if not earlier than the deadlines. I was particularly impressed with her independent creative output for our products, about which she learnt very quickly and without much effort required on our part. Moreover, her turnaround time was exceptional for the quality of work that we received. Chinar would be an asset to anyone looking for research, writing, or editing services, and comes with an eager recommendation from our team at Ajency.in.

Chinar is a very smart and helpful developer. I have asked for her help on many occasions and she has always provided a cheerful response. I have witnessed on many occasions Chinar's dedication and long hours of sacrifice to the organization. I'm constantly impressed how she can give so much of herself while still maintaining such a cheerful outlook.
