Jvala Singh is completing his PhD at the University of British Columbia, where he is examining pre-colonial Sikh historical narratives. This examination explores literature in Punjabi and Brajbhasha from the 18th and 19th centuries, building off his previous M.A. research completed at the University of Toronto, where he focused on Sikh Brajbhasha versions of Sanskrit epics, such as the Ramayana. He is also currently a lecturer at University of California, Berkeley, as a lecturer for Punjabi.

In furthering accessibility of pre-colonial Sikh Brajbhasha texts, Jvala Singh runs a podcast, the Suraj Podcast, where each episode is a chapter summary in English of the voluminous Suraj Prakash [1843 CE], a historical narrative covering the lives of the ten Sikh Gurus. written by Santokh Singh [1787-1844].
