Form follows function -
that has been misunderstood.
Form and function should be one,
joined in a spiritual union.
- Frank Llyod Wright

I believe this philosophy runs deep in design as well.
Great design happens when form and function move as one
- working seamlessly, and connecting deeply on a human level.

Hello there 👋

I’m a digital product designer based in Bengaluru, with 9+ years of experience across teams and domains. Starting as an illustrator in 2016, my journey through diverse disciplines has shaped a holistic approach to design—now my greatest strength.

Outside work, I paint, play instruments, and explore the outdoors on hikes and cycling trails.
