Aqil is a Brooklyn-born creative professional with over a decade of experience in visual storytelling. After earning a degree in Graphic Design from SUNY Canton, Aqil honed his craft as a freelance Creative Director behind the lens and screen—skilled with Canon DSLRs and proficient in Adobe Lightroom and Premiere. In addition to his freelance work, Aqil is the founder and designer of his own clothing brand named Kahuna.
Now based in Atlanta, Aqil brings the same passion he has for design to the outdoors. A lifelong lover of nature, he finds joy in plants, hiking, and kayaking – experiences shaped by his upbringing at summer camps and early exposure to nutrition and sustainability. He continues to blend creativity with purpose, sharing his journey and inspiring others to explore, grow, and express themselves freely.
