Stray Dogs Media
Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
I am a photojournalist and video producer currently based out of Bangalore, India. I have completed a graduate program in Photojournalism at Ohio University, School of Visual Communication. I do freelance documentary and editorial photojournalism. I also co-own a visual storytelling company called Stray Dogs Media with my partner Brooke Herbert. We work with NGOs and companies whose values we respect. So far we have worked with TIME, Dream a Dream and Rang De. I speak English, Hindi and Tamil fluently. I can also read and write in all three languages.
I am interested in social issues relating to the idea of nation state such as statelessness, migration and refugees. I am also interested in creating visually moving, human stories for NGOs and other companies working with the underprivileged and the oppressed.
My last project was on the Non-Camp Syrian Refugees in Turkey. I traveled to Turkey, on a grant from Ohio University. I am currently working on a project for NPR that deals with the NRC issue in Assam.
