About
THE STORY
"I didn't switch careers. I built one from scratch, at night, while everyone else was asleep."

Six years in a call center — night shifts, headsets, and a burning need for something more. While everyone around me was settling, I was editing on the side, learning motion graphics, building a craft nobody asked me to build.

Then I bet on myself. Dropped the steady income. Built a freelance career from zero. Worked with 50+ clients across fitness, real estate, education, and brand content. Delivered end-to-end production — scripts, edits, motion, delivery.

Today I'm a Visual Designer at Hindustan Times, India's largest English media house — while still running my freelance practice on the side. The MBA dropout story turned out fine.
