So, Who Am I Anyway?

I'm a product designer with an engineering background who makes sense of complex workflows and the systems behind them, and a teammate who turns design debates into opportunities to learn.

The Chapter I'm In

Currently pursuing my M.Des in Interaction Design at IIT Guwahati, learning to look beyond screens at the people, places and stories behind them, and to turn messy problems into meaningful experiences.

When I'm Not Designing

Probably cooking something, planning a trip, watching another film, painting, or dancing when the mood strikes and somewhere in between I might decide to manage a production for film.
