Curious at heart, my skillset stretches beyond Design. I write Hindi poetry, explore AI and emerging tech, and bring soulful detail to everything, from interface logic to Indian home-cooked meals. For me, design is where precision meets poetry, grounded in insight and built to resonate.

The Journey
The Journey
A beginning by The Ganges
31 December 1995
Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh
Born in the busy streets of Kanpur,
where life moved between old stories and growing dreams.
A childhood shaped by simple moments, quiet observations,
and a curiosity that slowly found its way toward design and creativity.
Lessons Beneath Open skies
2009-2013
Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya
Kanpur Nagar, Uttar Pradesh
School years spent in the warmth of hostel life,
morning assemblies, shared laughter, and endless learning.
Navodaya became more than a school,
it became a place where discipline, friendships,
and the habit of dreaming quietly took shape.
Shaping Matter & Machines
2013-2017
Bachelor of Technology - Plastics Engineering
Central Institute of Plastics Engineering & Technology
Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh
In Lucknow, engineering introduced the world of materials, machines, and precision.
Every process carried a lesson in patience and problem-solving,
slowly building the foundation of how things are
imagined, designed, and brought to life.
The Art of Precision
2017-2018
Post Graduate Diploma in CAD/CAM
Central Tool Room & Training Centre | MSME Tool Room
Bhubaneswar, Odisha
Among tools, molds, and machines,
design began to feel more detailed and thoughtful.
This journey was not only about creating products,
but also about understanding the beauty hidden inside precision and process.
Designing for Humanity
2019-2022
Master of Design - Universal Design
National Institute of Design
Ahmedabad (Bengaluru Campus)
At the National Institute of Design,
design became more human.
It was no longer just about screens or systems,
but about people, accessibility, emotions, and experiences.
Bengaluru became a space where creativity met empathy,
and ideas slowly turned into meaningful solutions.
Understanding Rural India
October 2022 - January 2023
UX Researcher
Department of Rural Development & Panchayat Raj, Government of Karnataka

the experience brought a deeper understanding of people and systems.
Through research and service design,
the goal was simple,
to make digital experiences clearer, easier, and more useful for communities.
Designing at Scale
August 2022 - July 2024
Product Designer
Jio Platforms Limited | Reliance NHQ
