I was 13 years old, a tourist when I first visited Silicon Valley. Passing the Apple headquarters, I set aside my iPod, gaping at the offices where virtuoso designers brought inspiring products to life. That’s my earliest memory of a yearning to build, design, and innovate. From a young age, my creative endeavors took many forms - sketching cars, building legos, and learning calligraphy.
I studied finance, psychology, economics, branding, and got my start in advertising and marketing. My passion for fashion eyewear and entrepreneurship led me to co-found Eye Story, a luxury eyewear boutique in Mumbai. I then evolved to specialize in product design with a Master’s Degree in Human-Computer Interaction from California College of the Arts, San Francisco. Leveraging my visual design foundation and deep user empathy, I established myself as a systems thinker who creates human-centered platforms with cohesive, on-brand experiences at every touchpoint: from vision and strategy to marketing. My insatiable curiosity, high craft, and adaptability enable me to generate impact in our ever-changing environment.
Solving a tangible need with a graceful solution is a practice I love and resides at my core. Collaborating with a team to create a far better outcome than otherwise possible energizes me. I’m always improving, growing, and executing at the highest standard. All while achieving a larger mission, tethered to something deeper.
