I studied Visual Communication and Information Design at Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology, where I was introduced not only to design systems and storytelling, but also to textile practices like weaving, printmaking, and dyeing. What began as coursework slowly became an important part of how I understand design itself.

I’m interested in processes that are slow, tactile, and observational, and that sensibility often finds its way back into my visual design work. Even when I’m designing for digital spaces, I think a lot about texture, rhythm, composition, and craft. I’m naturally a visual thinker and compulsive note-taker, so much of my process begins with collecting references, sketching thoughts, and finding patterns between ideas.

Outside of design, I spend a lot of time caring for my plants, going to the gym, knitting, or filling sketchbooks with small observations from everyday life.

Currently, I work as a visual designer at IBM in India, where I create visual narratives, campaigns, and communication design across different platforms and formats.
