I was born and raised in Ahmedabad, India. My love for creating began as a child. I spent summers learning all sorts of arts and crafts–watercolors, oil paints, papier-mache, fabric painting and all that. These experiences introduced me to the joy of creative flow, a passion that led me to the study industrial design in India and later to grad school in the US.

Toward the end of grad school, I started working on websites and mobile apps at a start-up. I am continually awed by the potential of software and have a genuine love for learning, exploring and creating new products. A few years into my journey, I continue to grow as a designer, now expanding my skills by learning to code and leveraging AI to build my ideas.

At then end of the day, whether its a physical product, an interface or even just doodling on my iPad, I love making things.

Currently, I live in Pasadena, CA with my husband. We enjoy walks around the neighborhood, visits to the Huntington Gardens (a favorite spot!), reading and spending time with our wonderful friends and community here.
