Oh hi, I’m Dil! 👋🏾

I’m the Visual Storytelling Director at Himmat Media.

As a child of immigrants, I always knew I wanted to do one thing which was to follow in the footsteps of my parents and help others. What that looked like, I had no clue. It was my time at McGill University as a Political Science and World Religions student that showed me I have a voice and using that voice to shout for others was one of the most powerful ways to help those who need it.

My work to this day focuses on exactly that - sharing stories with the hopes of the voiceless being heard.

There’s a polished finesse to their grit and a deep passion in their craft. They defy the odds, disrupt the status quo, and push beyond their comfort zones to stay true to themselves while uplifting their communities.

Introducing Positive Racial Profiling (PERP). This series spotlights racialised creative and business professionals with a playful twist that reclaims their identities.

Sit back, vibe, and get ready to meet our perps!
