[ Here's a bit about me ]
I was born and raised in Chennai, India before graduating from National Institute of Design’s Bachelor of Design program (Industrial Design) in 2018 in Kurukshetra, India.
I’ve been fortunate to have worked for some of the leading companies in the industry such as Logitech, Braun and TATA Elxsi. I have had the opportunity to complete my Undergraduate thesis project at Braun - designing an audio-based product for WFH environments. I’m currently pursuing the final semester of my Master’s in Industrial Design program at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), Providence.
Outside of design, I am a classical Bharatnatyam dancer on the loose, a dessert lover, and a sound sleeper who loves to spend time with other people. Creating miniature pots on the potter’s wheel and getting my hands messy has been my go-to hobby lately.
I'm currently seeking full-time opportunities from the summer to learn, share and collaborate alongside determined, passionate creatives in a forward-thinking environment.
