Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To learn, grasp and apply different ways of life, cultures and experiences to my daily life and work
ABOUT ME
About me, it is hard to describe within the limitations of this box although there are none, but lets just say i love to travel, meet new people from around the world. Learn about different cultures to grow as a human being and hope that it helps me in my field of work/art.
PHILOSOPHY
I live my life not just for myself, but for the people that i have known in my lifetime and have played a role in moulding/developing me as a person. I have 2 great supportive parents that are always behind me and I am thankful to them for eternity.
My feelings can vary from time to time as one may say, but i personally feel that we as a race have ourselves rooted to one common feeling, i.e. of TRUST. If that is in place, our world would be the best place to be not just for us, but for many generations to come. I hope we live to see the day when we have no borders. Far fetched thought, but it is one.
Interests
I love film making, movies, books, art, photography. I used to work as an editor for a few years and also assisted on a motion picture. As i come from Mumbai, you must realize it was a bollywood film with music/song scenes in it, hahaha! All i can say, it was great to work with some outstanding technicians and it did help me in my own personal way. 35mm really is the real deal!

Music, Movies, and Books
i love reading almost anything. I like inspirational stories, currently reading a book called CONNECT THE DOTS by Rashmi Bansal. It really is a gem if you are looking to boost that drive in you.
Music is the universal language for me. I love music of all kinds. What interests me most is how you can interpret different cultures within various forms/style of music.
Movies are never ending. Stories that will stay with us for a lifetime. It would be unfair to name a few and miss out on the rest. In short, i try to watch 1 movie a day and sometimes, i end up watching a few more.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing moment for me was to trek up this hill called Kalga, Pulga and Tulga which is in Himachal Pradesh, India. These are the foothills of the Himalayas. I was with 2 great friends of mine. We were attempting this on our own but realized we were kind of lost and it was getting darker. Fortunately, we stumbled upon a local guide who helped us to the top and introduced us to some locals who helped with our accommodation. Upon reaching the top, the view was outstanding and to be greeted by locals and allowed into their homes was a great feeling.
All this cost us $2 a night for food and living. What was priceless was the friends we made and the bond we shared. Would love to go back again and share this experience with friends from other countries.
Teach, Learn, Share
Knowledge is a gift that is to be shared with anyone and everyone. Everything i know is on a plate for you to choose. At the same time, i love learning and making mistakes. After all, it is only when you fall that you learn to fall better the next time.
