About

For more than three decades, journalism has shaped the way I see the world. It has taken me from newsrooms across India to international training programmes, documentary projects and classrooms, continually reinforcing one belief: the best learning comes from combining theory with real-world practice.

My career has spanned reporting, television production, editorial leadership and communication training. I have worked with organisations including BBC News, CNBC, TV Today Network, Sahara, Eenadu TV and Eyewitness (Hindustan Times Television), while also leading journalism education as Director of the Manorama School of Communication (MASCOM) for a decade.

Today, my work extends beyond journalism education. I design and deliver practical workshops in journalism, communication, leadership and media readiness for universities, organisations and professionals. Whether working with postgraduate students, senior executives or public institutions, my focus remains the same: helping people communicate with clarity, confidence and purpose.

I hold an MPhil in Journalism and Mass Communication and a Diploma in Broadcast Journalism from Cardiff University, UK, where I studied as a Chevening Scholar. My work has taken me across the Asia-Pacific region through journalism and communication training, while editorial initiatives such as TVJournalist.net, Switch2India and TVJ QuickTake continue my commitment to learning, storytelling and public understanding.

Everything I create—whether a workshop, article, video or publication—is guided by a simple philosophy:

Bridge academic learning with professional practice, and transform knowledge into communication that makes a difference.
