Rajesh is a Brand Consultant and CEO Coach, though he maintains that he is primarily a storyteller. His affair with nature began when he quit a promising career in hospitality to become an itinerant poet, traipsing through the villages of southern India. Those years shaped him into the man he became, and instilled in him a love for the land, and even to this day, the friendships with those simple farmers, continue to nourish his soul.

While his work takes him across the world, he remains at heart a simple village boy, in love with the stories that the sparrows and the koels, the leopards and the jackals, tell him.
