What I'm looking for
I am a Fashion and Textile Design graduate from The Design Village, Noida, focused on research-driven, concept-led design and material exploration. My work emphasizes garment construction, visual storytelling, and translating concepts into engaging narratives.
I have hands-on experience as a Junior Assistant Designer and as a Junior Designer & Creative Director (Internship), contributing to design development, creative execution, and collection delivery. I supported creative direction, ensured visual consistency, and coordinated photoshoots from planning through on-ground execution.
I led creative direction and managed Instagram content for a brand, oversaw styling and shoot planning, and contributed to the development of the collection “Clay” from concept to execution. I also worked as a stylist for a music artist, developing styling concepts aligned with the artist’s identity.
I bring strong communication skills, presentation and pitching experience, and a detail-oriented approach to problem-solving. I collaborate well across teams and aim to produce work that balances research, material thinking, and compelling visual presentation.
