I am a lifestyle accessory design graduate from NIFT (2005-09), Delhi, INDIA. Contributing my skills and practicing projects in field of lifestyle accessory design, product design, branding, and packaging design as independent design consutant. In 2009, my projects with a ceramic company, Jaipur Ceramic Pvt. Ltd. was acknowledged by Elle Decor International Design Award during my final graduation project. I further continued my experience with an export company as design manager and successfully executed many projects. My belief and focus always fall towards qualitative communication and so I polished my skills recently with Masters in Design Directions from Istituto Marangoni (Milano, Italy). During the studies, I got an opportunity to participate in D&AD design Awards 2011.

Experiences with many materials, continuous research and updating information about upcoming materials. I enjoy my sketching, and doodling session of a project along with solving technical problems with CAD. Strong Research in contemporary design and trends are my beliefs during any projects. An experience of Human behavioral research with Future-Urban group as student researcher, was performed for Future urban group - NOKIA in India (2007). With a good and clear communication skills and sense of form, function, color, material, prototyping can be seen in my portfolio.
