I spent most of my teenage watching documentaries and hoping one day to go and capture the world through the lens of a camera.  

Like every young man of my age, I was rebel and wanted to change the world. 

My interest for spirituality and humanitarian work came when I was 17 but only developed fully when I met H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar and His organization ‘The Art of Living Foundation’ in 1997. 

Experiencing the ‘Art of Breathing’ course and Sudarshan Kriya – which is the core technique Sri Sri teaches – awakened my wish to serve society by uplifting human values such as friendliness and compassion. Sri Sri’s profound wisdom opened my eyes to the extent that I decided to dedicate my life to his organization, the Art of Living Foundation.
 
In my late twenties, I effortlessly got into editing and discovered the positive influence images can have on our mind. I started filming Sri Sri’s discourses for the first time in 2000 as well documenting the experiences of people who have gone through the different courses internationally.  

During my travels worldwide, I had the opportunity to meet so many different types of people who shared their life story with the camera. 

What continues to strike me the most in their testimonies is that each individual is looking for the same thing in life: Being happy and spread the message of peace. 

As a human being, I am proud to be part of such an important moment in time where thousands of people across the world are enriching their own personal lives through spirituality, for the greater good of everyone else around them.
 
As a filmmaker and photographer, it is enriching to know people’s lives and this has helped broaden my vision.  

Capturing people’s raw expressions or the true beauty of a moment requires patience, and it is my passion for my art, which drives me to persevere.  

True satisfaction is achieved when the art is expressed and shared, and gratitude can then be seen through the eyes of the viewers.
