Suchita was born in India and grew up in the U.A.E., before immigrating to Canada as a child with her family. She has an MFA in Poetry from New York University where she taught three semesters in the Undergraduate Creative Writing Program. Engaging with the personal as well as the mythological, her poetry is interested in the ways we can become exiled from our home/land as well as our own bodies.
