We at FirstCuriosity believe that a competent team of editors is the backbone of effective content coverage on any website. Hence, we have carefully built a well-informed and experienced editorial team that fact-checks and improves the readability of every piece of content. Our editorial team comprises handpicked journalists passionate about their respective subjects.
Rishita Roy Chowdhury is the Chief Editor at FirstCuriosity. She has always been fascinated with the power of words and the need to follow goings on of the world. She likes to spend most of her time contemplating her existence, and escaping reality by reading, writing, and watching movies and shows. So, she made a career out of it in 2017 when she joined ScoopWhoop and extensively wrote about pop culture.
To gain more experience in hardcore news, she moved on to the print arena with The Sunday Guardian newspaper where she interviewed celebrities, musicians, sportsmen, authors, chefs, and more. Her love of all things art and culture also led her to review books, movies, series, and restaurants. She tested and expanded her skills by dabbling in the digital space with India Today’s entertainment team. There, she wrote thousands of articles on the world of glitz and glamour.
Now, at FirstCuriosity, she constantly searches and writes stories that resonate with readers and spark their interest. She also manages a team of dedicated writers who share her vision to remain sane in a crazy world with doses of entertainment.

Shubham Tyagi is the content manager at FirstCuriosity. A self-described Infomaniac, he is very passionate about Mythologies around the world, and his fascination with the subject is only surpassed by his devotion to Fantasy, Fiction, and Sci-fi movies.
