Naveen spent nearly 8 years rescuing and rehabilitating wildlife in and around Bangalore. This experience propelled him into conservation and ecology, leading him to volunteer at various organizations and eventually work as a project coordinator at The Kalpavalli Community Conservation Area at Timbaktu Collective.

Passionate about education, ecology, and young minds, Naveen transitioned to working with schools. He has served as an educator across schools for the past 7 years. Currently, he has returned to ecology, focusing on Education and Outreach at the Adavi Trust.
