What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to innovate and collaborate on creative projects, ideally in a dynamic environment that values design excellence and teamwork.

I am a passionate and dynamic graphic designer with a strong focus on social media, packaging, and branding. Currently, I serve as a Senior Graphic Designer at EveryLastDetail, where I lead brand collateral design for notable FMCG brands, including Tata and GoFit. My work involves creating impactful designs that resonate with audiences and enhance brand visibility across various platforms.

Throughout my career, I have collaborated closely with social media managers to strategically plan engaging content that strengthens brand identity. My experience includes designing emailers, brochures, branding materials, and outdoor banners, all aimed at amplifying online engagement. I thrive on exploring new techniques and expanding my skills, always aiming to create designs that leave a lasting impact.

With a background in graphic design and digital art from FX School and a degree from the University of Mumbai, I have developed a diverse skill set that includes proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, as well as AI tools like MidJourney and ChatGPT. I am eager to continue growing in my career and contributing to innovative design projects.
