THE STORY
Chennai to Toronto. One Through-Line.
I grew up in the Chennai area — physics degree, then an MBA in marketing. A decade in corporate India: territory sales, area management, market development. The work was good. It didn't feel like the full picture.
In 2016 I left India. In 2017 I arrived in Toronto. In 2021, Canadian citizenship. In 2026, an MTS from Tyndale University.
Somewhere in between: a camera. A 600mm lens. A hard drive with 29,000 photographs. Writing that wouldn't stop accumulating.
Photography taught me to pay attention — really pay attention — to the moment in front of me. Seminary taught me that paying attention is a theological act. That how you see shapes what you believe.
I haven't resolved the disciplines into one job title. The thread connecting them is enough.
