About

I studied communication design at GLS Institute of Design and have worked on brand identity since 2021. I now split my time between Studio Carbon and Aryse, which I founded.

Background

I interned at Design Up in 2021 and joined Studio Carbon the same year, working on identity for clients in robotics and mobility. From there I moved to Shed as a material and design researcher, then spent a year as a design researcher and curriculum designer at Balgokulam, and a year leading treks in the Himalaya for Indiahikes.

I am back at Studio Carbon as a communication designer, alongside Aryse, which I founded in 2025.
