My Story

​Born and raised in New Delhi, I’ve always been drawn to the details that others often overlook — the way a material feels in your hand, how light transforms a space, or how a product becomes part of someone’s routine. That curiosity led me to industrial design, and over the past 6 years, I’ve explored its possibilities across products, scale, and craft.

My journey began with Titan, where I designed timekeeping systems for children with autism. It taught me early that design isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s about empathy. I later joined Klove Studio, where I worked on large-scale light installations, translating emotion into material using glass, metal, and space. One of my proudest projects was designing ‘Kalpataru’, a 16-ft inverted banyan tree chandelier suspended in a private home in Pune.

Now at Lenskart, I lead IP-led eyewear collections in collaboration with Harry Potter, Warner Bros., Masaba, and ISRO. I’ve worked on products that sold over 80 lakh units, shaped CMF strategies, and helped bring cultural stories to life through wearable design.

Whether I’m designing something that sits on your nose or hangs 18 feet in the air, my goal remains the same — to solve with purpose, design with soul, and create with curiosity.

My Design Ethos

I believe design should be intuitive, emotional, and honest — grounded in real stories, and refined through material and context.

Whether I’m creating a frame that rests on someone’s face or a chandelier that transforms a space, I approach every project with curiosity, craft, and a commitment to meaningful detail. I design with both the user and the maker in mind — balancing function, feeling, and feasibility.

To me, great design isn’t just about how something looks — it’s about how it lives in the world.
