A small but effective team
Jaya
Jaya has been a journalist for over 25 years and worked with some of the English dailies and digital media in Bangalore. Dabbled in some journalism teaching and had a stint at a wildlife research organisation, TEL is positively the last halt in this voyage, she believes. Deeply in love with the planet and all its wild and tame denizens, she hopes to spread this love through the portal and its stories, to children and adults, who can be the torch bearers for a sustainable way of living.
