Beyond the camera

Growing up in Mumbai, India, I was surrounded by the energy of one of the world's busiest cities, but I always found myself drawn to nature. Wildlife became an obsession from an early age, even though it was a passion I rarely shared with those around me.

What began as family safaris turned into photography in 2019, when I picked up a third-hand camera and started exploring India's wild landscapes. Photography became my way of sharing the moments and experiences that made me fall in love with the natural world.

Since then, my journey has taken me across India and other parts of the world. Today, I am studying Wildlife Conservation and Marine Biology at the University of Washington in Seattle, where my passion has grown beyond photography into wildlife filmmaking. Through both stills and motion, I hope to inspire others to see and appreciate nature the way I do.
