Great design simplifies a complicated world.

-Platon

Hi, I am Ankur and I deeply care about my creative principles because like Platon said, “it simplifies a complicated world”. I am fascinated by things around me, I can strike up random conversations and I am intrigued on how human body is designed.

In my former life I served in the U.S. Army gathering intelligence stationed in Anchorage, Alaska, captured history in the making photographing Detroit for The Detroit News.

Currently, I own a neighborhood coffee shop a.k.a. free gallery space where I can find really good stories and interesting people .

I am fortunate to shoot for EPA, AFP, Epic Group, Maji Development Coalition, 1859 Magazine, The Detroit News and a few other companies .
