I use my art to begin conversations about what we consume and discard.

I had the honor of leading an inspiration session on "Wealth from Waste" for the team at Target, one of the largest retailers in the United States. It was a fantastic opportunity to discuss repurposing and creativity with a major corporation.

An interactive session titled "Trash to Treasure" hosted by Rotary Bangalore, Cubbon Park. In this talk, I demonstrate how to see e-waste differently and create fascinating things from it, turning a pressing environmental issue into a canvas for art.

I announced "Upcycling: Transforming Waste into Valuable Products" for Rotary Bangalore Metro at Century Club on 7 March 2024.

An invitation for my interactive experience at the Canadian International School. These sessions include live demonstrations and discussions on the environmental impact of e-waste, aiming to inspire students, parents, and faculty to embrace sustainable practices.
