What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead brand strategy, visual identity, and purposeful communication for ambitious consumer or technology ventures, collaborating across teams to turn research and positioning into category-defining brand experiences.

I founded BombayGrid, a brand strategy and design studio that helps startups and scale-ups establish differentiated market positions through research, positioning, and visual identity.

I lead multidisciplinary branding engagements end to end, from strategic brand frameworks and client relationships to visual identity systems that strengthen perception and support business growth.

At TIH IIT Bombay, I created marketing and promotional materials across TIH IITB, BharatGen, and QmetTech. I also led the creative direction and delivery of ATMAN 2.0 and the BharatGen Summit 2025, while building social media narratives to strengthen brand presence and engagement.

At Wahed Invest, I simplified policies and complex information into clear internal communications, redesigning platforms to improve navigation, visual aesthetics, and employee engagement. My work is guided by clarity, ethics, and purposeful communication.
