Humai (something like who-may) here. My home base is Brooklyn but I’m often traveling. I'm on a quest to discover the world around me.

I worked in the digital ad space for many years before deciding to follow a different path. I made the move after losing my mother to brain cancer. That was a transformational experience for me - one that created a before and after division in my life that changed me deeply. I documented her though her sickness and realized that I needed to explore my creativity. Finding this new form of communication and reflection changed how I saw myself and my place in this world. So in early 2017 I forged a new creative path with my camera in hand.

Today I spend all my time between my two companies: HAPPYMONDAY and HYFN.

I co-founded a content studio called HAPPYMONDAY. Our focus is digital storytelling and content for social media. We work with brands across many industries and heavily in music and fashion. I’ve had the chance to travel the world, meet fascinating people, and grow in ways I never could have imagined before.

I also started HYFN, a South Asian clothing brand and storytelling platform. I was raised to appreciate and embrace where I came from and who I am. My perception of the world, the foods I eat, the music I listen to, all of it is a blend of what my parents passed down to me and my own experiences. I’m interested in how our identities affect us all individually and as a group. I want to showcase the beautiful and thought provoking voices within my immigrant community. I hope that my work celebrates my culture and that these stories shine brighter as we continue to progress forward.

I want to contribute something great to this world. I am learning and growing, and I want to do it with love and the best of intentions. That is my mission.
