IN MY SPARE TIME
I'm on a mission (plays 007 music in bg) to sprinkle a bit of magic into people's lives through the wizardry of crafting gorgeous products that not only look good but also make them feel like they've just unlocked a secret level of awesomeness. Because let's face it, who wouldn't want their daily dose of empowerment served with a side of whimsy and a sprinkle of enchantment?
Current
I burst out of the creative cocoon of NIFT back in 2018, equipped with this quirky obsession: I believe our surroundings should be like Nature, changing and grooving with humanity's funky dance moves. I mean, who wouldn't want a living space that adapts to your mood swings and evolving taste, right? It's like designing for the ultimate shape-shifting party where the architecture is the dance floor. Let the good vibes and design flexibility roll!
Right now, I'm the lead of a fantastic team of five incredibly talented designers at Titan Company Limited. We're the masterminds behind some of the wild and wacky wearables you spot in the market. We're not just making products; we're creating wearable masterpieces!
HOW DID IT START
The design breakthrough for me came courtesy of football and video games, two things close to my heart. Back in my 6th grade, I was all about playing PES (Pro Evolution Soccer). The catch? PES didn't bother with licensing my beloved club, Arsenal. They just faked names and resemblances. Ding, Dong! I wasn't a fan of that. I loved the game, but this glitch with Arsenal bugged me.
Naturally, I set out to fix this issue. I delved into the game's codes and renders, using some wacky know-hows from the internet. That sparked a newfound interest in designing.
Skip forward to,Android making waves in the mainstream market. Around the same time in India, there was this magazine "My Mobile". My dad would buy it every month, and I devoured its contents in a flash.
Sometimes, I'd even find myself sketching UI designs for phones that, in my humble opinion, never saw the light of success. Those were the good ol' days of decoding games, hacking the system, and sketching UI dreams!
