"Change in context brings changes in the content" - Prof. Anil Gupta
I'm a Product Designer and Strategist.
Looking for Full-Time Opportunities as a Product Designer, UX Designer and UX Researcher.
As a designer, I have been driven by disruption, innovation and social impact. I challenge the status quo and solve complex business problems through human-centered design rooted in deep research. I am a systemic thinker who works on the intersection of product, service and business innovation in my design practice.
Previously, I started my own design consultancy by the name of D'Scope providing services in product design, industrial design, brand building and digital marketing to global clients with a team of 9 designers and engineers. I have extensively worked with grassroots Indian communities working in the unorganized construction industry.
During the pandemic, I launched Uncle's Bistro, a food-based business specializing in Indian biryanis and Adeptile.com, a global online platform for art education focused at children between the ages of 8-14 years.
