ABOUT
A little more about me..
I am a designer from New Delhi, India and recently graduated with honours from the Industrial Design program at The Rhode Island School of Design.
I work on the intersection of design and business development, building products and services that are meaningful and purposeful. Addressing the problem, not the symptom through creative thinking is what excites me and guides my thought process and work!
​
While at RISD, I led E'Ship RISD's student-led entrepreneurship organization. I also went on to co-found UpStart, the first design-driven, student-led venture accelerator.
