What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to innovate and grow in a collaborative environment, focusing on creative design projects.

I am a passionate Graphic and Textile Designer with a strong focus on color, pattern, and visual storytelling. My experience includes creating market-ready designs for various home products, such as cushions, pillow covers, and bedsheets. I thrive in managing multiple projects while ensuring high design standards and innovation in my work.

Having graduated with a Bachelor of Design from the National Institute of Fashion Technology in Bangalore, I have honed my skills in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and other design software. My internship experiences with renowned brands have allowed me to explore material techniques and surface embellishments, further enhancing my design capabilities. I am dedicated to crafting unique visual experiences that resonate with audiences.
