Growing up in India, I was immersed in a pluralistic design culture where creativity and empathy shaped everyday life—my father, a furniture designer and businessman, taught me craft and problem-solving; my mother embodied empathy and quiet efficiency; and my sister expressed creativity through sketching, painting, and henna art—shaping how I see design not just as aesthetics, but as intention and care.

My tech curiosity sparked at age eight in my school’s first lab. I was blown away by how the internet put limitless information and ease right at my fingertips. Though I pursued a business management degree, I was drawn to the craftsmanship and intentionality behind great design, especially Apple products

I often think of good design like my mother’s presence—rarely noticed when it works, but deeply felt when it’s missing.

Today, I apply my multidisciplinary product design skills to create human-centered solutions that quietly reduce friction and make people’s lives easier.
