Welcome back to The Iron Sights Podcast! In this episode, I sat down with Anshil Popli to discuss the arts, photography and how to establish a name for yourself in The Bay Area. Popli was born in Florida but grew up in the East Bay. His talent for photography is unmatched and this episode deconstructs his efforts to establish a reputation in the Bay Area as one of the most artistic & individualized creators in the industry. We met through the firearms industry but Anshil's work extends far beyond how we met. I hope you enjoy this weeks dive into: art, photography, The Bay Area & creating something from nothing with our special guest Anshil Popli.
