About

Driven by a passion for conservation and ecology, I bridge the gap between academic research and on-ground wildlife conservation. Currently pursuing a PhD in Ecology with a background in Zoology, my work spans from studying complex ecosystems to active wildlife rescue and natural disaster management. Through the lens of wildlife photography, I aim to document the natural world and foster community awareness. I am dedicated to wildlife research, habitat conservation, and building a sustainable future for our biodiversity.
