Stories rooted in the hills I call home.

My journey in the media industry began in 2016 and has grown across creative direction, production and communications ever since. I've worked on feature films including Iewduh, Lorni \– The Flaneur and Rwai Ka Shara, alongside commercial projects for brands like Toyota, NEXA, Ather, Wild Stone and Unilever Ayush. That work has taken me from production sets across the Khasi, Jaintia and Garo Hills to a content assignment in the United Kingdom with the Shillong Chamber Choir.

One of my earliest significant collaborations, with IFAD, Roger King and NESFAS, sharpened my interest in documenting food, agriculture, people and indigenous knowledge, an interest that still shapes much of my work today, including documentation of Meghalaya's globally recognised Living Root Bridges and the traditions connected to them.

As a filmmaker, my approach remains raw, human and cinematic. I co-founded The Hillspeople Collective in 2019 because I believed that before making films, we needed to build the people, establish a work culture and set up a creative ecosystem that could sustain them.

Over the years, this grew into a community of collaborators, artists and technicians. The short film Ka Jingshemphang (The Knowing) emerged from that journey as my debut film and this became an important milestone in defining my voice as a filmmaker.

"It is about documenting stories worth remembering, creating opportunities for others."
