What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead end-to-end product design at mission-driven teams or startups, collaborate with engineers on market-ready and medical products, and grow into product leadership while building community-driven solutions.

I am an industrial designer with a B.Des from PES University (CGPA: 9.10/10), experienced in end-to-end product design across lifestyle, IoT, medical devices and sports equipment. I work hands-on with materials, prototyping and manufacturing and collaborate closely with electrical and mechanical engineers to create market-ready products.

I have contributed as a founding-team intern at F8 Products, started a sports equipment vertical (F8 Sports), and completed internships at IISc - TCS Innovation Lab developing a clinical-grade audio device for EEG monitoring, and at RichWood designing furniture and photorealistic visualizations. I led research and industrial design for a clinical Lung Fluid Level indicator and had a short-distance urban commuting concept selected for the World Resources Forum (WRF 2023).

I founded Chalk, an event discovery and networking platform for university students focused on community building, UX, marketing and product development. I am passionate about building user-centered products, bringing prototypes to market, and contributing to teams that value cross-disciplinary collaboration and practical innovation.
