Marketer and Visual Storyteller

I am a marketer and brand storyteller. I find the idea, write the brief, and when the story needs a camera, I pick one up. I build brands people remember and campaigns that actually move.

01Bio

A filmmaker who became a marketer. Six years behind the camera in Bengaluru taught me how attention is earned. Graduate school in Chicago taught me how to turn that into strategy. Today I sit between the two, building campaigns that move people and brands that stay with them.

Marketing first. Camera second. Same hands.

02Where it began

Before · 12.97°N

Bangalore

Before, Bengaluru: four years building brands behind a camera. Over 300 live events, launches, and campaigns. This is where I learned attention is a craft, not a metric.

Now · 41.87°N

Chicago

Now, Chicago: a graduate degree in marketing at DePaul. New market, same instinct. Brand first, story always.

04How I work

How I work

A simple loop. It keeps the work honest.

01

Listen

I start by listening. Audience interviews, audits, and real time with customers before I prescribe anything.

02

Frame

I turn what I heard into a sharp idea, a clear position, and a brief the whole team can build from.

03

Make

Campaigns, content, and creative built from the idea up, not the brief down. I can direct the shoot myself.

04

Grow

Launch, learn, and keep optimizing. Performance is built in from day one, not bolted on after.
