Ishika is a journalist with over three years of experience, currently involved in the dynamic world of college sports reporting at Sportskeeda. Ishika's journey as a journalist started in 2022 and currently pursuing a Master's degree in English.

Ishika particularly enjoys writing throwback pieces, where she gets to deep-dive into snippets of history. She sources information only from credible sources that are known for their accuracy and reliability and authoritativeness. She uses multiple credible sources to corroborate information, and proofreads her articles at least thrice before submitting.

Her favorite college football moment was the Texas Longhorns' shocking upset over Alabama in 2023, with No. 11 Texas rolling into Tuscaloosa and taking down the No. 3 Crimson Tide 34-24, snapping their 21-game home winning streak. Nick Saban's combination of sustained excellence, strategic prowess, and championship pedigree makes him her favorite coach.

Apart from being a Patrick Mahomes and Carson Beck fan, she enjoys following Texas Tech. With their history of pulling off upsets and going toe-to-toe with bigger programs, the Red Raiders are her favorite team. They also have a knack for developing quarterbacks who light up the NFL, with Mahomes being a prime example.

When she's not analyzing the intricacies of the game, Ishika finds solace in dance and cinema.
