Ankit Shukla was born in India, but he moved with his parents to Sparks, NV, when he was only a year old. His parents were hardworking immigrants who wanted a better life their two sons, and they succeeded. Ankit attended Sparks High School and then received his Bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University of Nevada, Reno.

After college, Ankit left Nevada to explore other areas of the country, working as a nurse. He started travel nursing in 2010, which he still does to this day, having lived in numerous states across the country. Since Ankit was a child, he has had a passion for writing. He began writing poetry and short stories at a young age and eventually turned his passion into a career as an author and freelance writer. 

Ankit loves the written word and considers it an art form. He continues to write on as many topics as he can and hopes that no topic will be off-limits in the future. He hopes to gain more young fans with his children’s book. 

Ankit currently lives with his wife in Aurora, CO. They both love the city life of nearby Denver, as well as the beautiful Colorado scenery. He enjoys traveling, hiking, riding his bike, and trying new foods.
