What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster creativity and collaboration in a dynamic environment.

I am a multidisciplinary visual designer with a strong foundation in graphic design, branding, and visual identity. My passion for storytelling extends beyond visuals, as I also delve into film, photography, and cinematography, crafting compelling narratives that resonate with audiences. My creative journey has allowed me to explore various mediums, including music and sound design, where I express my artistic vision through singing and acting.

Currently, I work as a Visual Designer at Kshm in Gurgaon, where I create engaging cross-platform digital creatives that drive sales and enhance brand quality. My previous experiences include directing and editing a feature-length documentary at Moksha Stories, where I also authored a companion photo book profiling undocumented rural artisans. I pride myself on my ability to conduct immersive field research, building trust within communities to document authentic stories.

With a Bachelor of Design from the National Institute of Design, I graduated with a 9.1 JGPA, equipping me with the skills and knowledge to excel in the dynamic field of design. I am eager to continue pushing creative boundaries and collaborating with like-minded individuals to create impactful visual experiences.
