I build near-future prototypes. I worked as a designer since 2011 (see archive of work till 2023) with companies of every size, and across various industries (eg. Finance, Ed-tech, Consulting, High Art, Robotics, etc) in India, England, Sweden, and briefly also Japan ; taught students design fiction, ritual design, data manifestation ("what's that", you ask?), and experience prototyping ; and joined Purdue University in a teaching capacity in August 2025. I like writing short poems, posting letters (with stamps on them), and rock-climbing. And—as my profile picture shows—i'm honing my "think out of the box" skillset.
