HELLO, I am an industrial designer based in Hyderabad, India. A graduate from MIT Institute of Design, Pune. I have an inclination towards user centric experience/ service designs and design for social needs with more than 3 yrs of on ground exerience. A passionate and enthusiatic learner, I tailor the design process to fit the need of each project. As a peer learner and an experimentalist with differnet medium , material and techniques, I believe in making things happen and happen for the audience who needed it the most. Would travel in any part of globe to work in different projects and people/community exploring challenges to help tackle it. I like to share my passion and expertise to enrich lifestyles through observation and conceptualise with the community. I envision a sustainable society where compassion and empathy is the base for its foundation and art takes us on a ride to infinite possibility.
