The story

Design is how I make sense of the world.

At Microsoft AI, I work where craft meets consequence, designing AI and healthcare experiences that reach hundreds of millions of people. Every pixel carries weight when someone's health is on the line. Eight years across WongDoody, Temenos and Byju's shaped a simple belief: great design isn't about screens, it's about people's lived reality.

Outside of work, I found my voice in the community. I built Nodes of Design, India's first design podcast, which found its way to #1 on Apple Podcasts across 20 countries. I wrote Nodes of Wisdom, gathering lessons from 100 creative visionaries into a book designers keep returning to. Through ADPlist, I mentor designers across 30 countries, recognised nine times as a Top 1% Mentor globally. And in The Creativee Community, 800+ creatives show up every day to learn, share and grow together.

I didn't choose design. It chose me. And somewhere between the first sketch and the hundredth shipped product, I realised this was never about making things look good. It was about making people feel seen.
