Creator

Consultant

interested in inspiring stories & conscious brands


Some Drive

The primary emergence of the human consciousness is the question that encompasses our identity; “Who am I?”. While we ironically call it the ‘I’ or ‘Me’, we often fail to realise that a large portion of it is in fact, constructed by ‘Others’.

My education at LASALLE College of the Arts in Singapore and the London Film School followed by my vast experience in the Creative Industry and the Social Sector played a pivotal role in the formation of this ‘I’ . However, it is in my spiritual pursuit I found, that the answer to ‘Who am I?’ actually rests in the dissolution of the ‘I’.

My life has been a seething cauldron of excitement and laughter, sighs and despair, anger and rejection, work and sweat, wisdom and foolishness. As someone who is constantly seeking to evolve, I expect the coming years to be a kaleidoscopic exchange of learning and teaching; pieces of broken mirrors shifting and emerging into new patterns, images and colours. 

I am deeply grateful to have had an enriching education, a diverse work experience, and above all, the privilege to pursue a creative career. With a burning fire within me to authentically serve humanity from my heart, my dream as a creator is to establish a unique language of communication that has the power to touch & transform lives at the level of the ‘I’.

  • Of all the things that I do, this is the most special. I’ve died and been reborn and continue to work on myself to gain the unique perspective that I have on a range of things — creative and personal. I have sorted out the mess that I am and having done this, I am confident about sorting out any mess. I won’t call myself a ‘Life Coach’ or a ‘Therapist’ because I’m not qualified for it but I take a metaphysical approach that is rooted in a deep inner knowing of the various mechanics of life. I’ve been told my wild, method-less approach works better than most professional therapists or consultants. I guess it’s just a gift - you’ll have to go with simple ‘Trust’ on this one.

  • With 15 years of experience in the creative process from script to screen, I possess the skills to helm a wide range of projects spanning fiction, non-fiction, long-form, short-form, music videos, and impactful PSAs. Whether I'm working with talented actors or immersing myself in dynamic environments, at the core of my craft lies a passion for narratives that promote growth, evolution and consciousness. I believe in the power of a well-told story to reshape human destiny.

  • My biggest challenge as a filmmaker in India has been to find editors who understand narrative. While many of them excel in the technical aspects, I go beyond to craft compelling narratives with a meticulous attention to detail. From pacing to character development, every cut is made with the intention of enhancing the story's impact. When it comes to the edit table, I have a passion for seamless narratives that evoke emotions and captivate audiences.

  • Through my work as an impact producer, I collaborate with filmmakers, theatre-makers, NGOs, advocacy groups, policy and decision makers to shed light on important social and environmental issues. From structuring the narrative for maximum impact, to securing the right partners, marketing the creative product, organising performances & screenings; I navigate the world of impact theatre and filmmaking to ensure that the message reaches the hearts and minds of those who can make a difference.

  • Through articles, essays, op-eds, photo-essays and documentaries, my work aims to transcend the conventional boundaries of news reporting. It aspires to illuminate nuanced perspectives, untangle complex social issues, and shed light on the profound essence of the human condition. With a dedication to thorough research, empathy, and an unwavering commitment to truth, I seek to present narratives in a manner that can transform human consciousness.

  • With my love for the camera, my aim is to uncover hidden stories and capture the essence of the human experience. I thoroughly enjoy immersing myself in different cultures, communities, and environments to document raw and authentic moments. I strive to create visual narratives that provoke thought and inspire empathy. Whether it's capturing nature, humanitarian efforts, cultural traditions, or environmental challenges, my photographs serve as a way to connect people and foster a deeper understanding of our world.

  • As a brand consultant & communication designer, I go beyond the traditional realm of creating relevant brand identities. At the heart of my work lies a strong visual identity and a brand story that aligns with a conscious approach. By weaving together an authentic voice, social consciousness, and strategic thinking, I help businesses and individuals create brands that are deeply rooted in values and have the ability to resonate with audiences on a deeper level.
