A little more about me

I have always
written things down.

I’m Vikram Arora. You’ll usually find me online as neoviky. I’m a writer, trainer and podcaster based in Dehradun.

Some of my writing goes back to 2004. Over the years, those notes, questions and observations have found their way into books. I write about human nature, the mind, ancient Indian wisdom, work, and the things we accept without questioning.

My books take different forms: essays, illustrated reflections, practical guides, fiction, and collections of art. The podcast gives me another way to explore these subjects aloud.

Writing is also my profession. I create content for founders and business leaders, have summarized over 800 books, worked on thousands of articles, and led a publishing team responsible for 102 journals a year.

Training is another part of my life. I have taught career guidance and life skills to more than 2,500 students, helped over 100 students prepare for placement interviews, and run AI webinars for hundreds of freshers.

I also founded a trekking community in 2018 and organized more than 150 treks and events in Uttarakhand. Life outside the page matters to me too.
