ABOUT ME
I am a writer, producer and creative director with over 11 years of professional experience, ranging from writing and producing short format content, to writing and developing screenplays for films and web series.
It all began with an internship at MTV back in 2009, where I first dabbled in both production for TV and experimented with digital content in the age of 256 Kbps internet. I then got into comedy writing with AIB where I wrote sketches that broke the internet and made headlines (in a good way). After this, I worked with Abish Mathew on a few of his properties such as Son of Abish, one season of which aired on Hotstar.
I am currently working with Dice Media as a creative producer. I have written and developed the third and fourth seasons of their popular web series, What The Folks. Most importantly, it is here that I developed, conceptualized and wrote India’s first Esports drama, Clutch, a show that resonated deeply with the Indian gaming community.
I am also a self-taught editor and designer and can double up as one, when the situation calls for it. I am a jack of all trades, and a master of some.
My work has generated over 160 million views across multiple videos and episodes, and this is just the beginning!
