What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a summer internship where I can apply graphic design, illustration, and visual storytelling across editorial, digital, and motion contexts while continuing to develop design thinking.

I've created illustrations, characters, icons, and scalable digital asset libraries for client projects at KEEDA Design, collaborating with creative teams on themes, briefs, originality, and delivery quality.

Across freelance work, Aquastark Technologies, and Smile and Glo Aesthetic Clinic, I've designed social media creatives, catalogues, branding collateral, marketing graphics, and storyboards. I translate scripts and brand narratives into clear visual sequences, digital sketches, and consistent campaign materials.

I'm pursuing an M.Des in Visual Design at IIT Hyderabad while contributing to conference, festival, and event branding. I also co-created The Banarasi Baniya, directing, editing, branding, and shaping its visual identity.
