stories through my lensI'm a filmmaker, creative director, photographer and educator drawn to stories that feel honest, quiet and deeply human. My work moves between moving image, photography and art, often finding stories in nature, people, movement and everyday life.

About my work
I like creating calm, cinematic visuals that leave room for feeling rather than forcing a narrative.
A strong part of my practice is rooted in Indian art, textiles, music and traditional forms, which I continue to explore through a contemporary visual language.
