Summary

With a Master of Theology in Biblical Studies from the South Asia Institute of Advanced Christian Studies in Bangalore, I am fueled by a passion for teaching the Old Testament. This passion compels me to guide students towards a deeper understanding of the text, while fostering spiritual growth. My goal is to equip students not only to analyze the Old Testament but also to integrate its timeless wisdom into their personal and communal lives.
