I’m looking for a full-time or long-term role in brand design or creative strategy, ideally with a SaaS, AI or tech company, or a design studio. I’d love a team that values thoughtful work, gives honest feedback, and lets me grow.

What I'm looking for
I’m a brand designer and creative strategist with over three years of freelance experience. I started as an oil painter and sold my portraits internationally, then studied Design Principles at Symbiosis Institute of Design. I’m currently completing my BBA, which gives me the business side of the work.
Since then I’ve designed brand identities, campaigns and content for clients in India, Australia and the US, across beauty, ed tech, hospitality, SaaS and entertainment.
