About

me

I'm a writer, model, and creative director from Toronto. I've been working in the creative industry for 6 years.


I've always looked to fashion for inspiration. I'm heavily influenced by color, movement, and flow.


Alongside continuously participating in passion projects, surrounding myself with like-minded creatives has further driven me to find new ways of expressing my thoughts and feelings artistically and authentically that can speak to others and inspire them to create unapologetically.


As a South Asian woman living in Toronto, creative talent is not difficult to find within the city or through the people of the city. A lot of the genius that has been shared with the world has come from Toronto, which has been a great influence on my craft.

I creatively directed and helped produce photoshoots that were heavily influenced by colouring. I’m fascinated by different hues, and how they can come alive on camera.
