Someone who loves branding, logo design, typography, mixed media and advertising. Throw in a fascination for photography as well and you've got me.

Being South Asian and living in the Middle East gives me a whole new kind of perspective on things. I love details and I love experimenting with design.
The more opportunities I get to do that, the better. I was born in Bombay (what is now unfortunately known as Mumbai) and raised in Dubai.
I like to think of myself as a creative, there's no other definite word that I aspire to be defined as, since I enjoy various aspects of art and design from photography to writing, creative advertising to painting, I really do love it all. Numerous things fascinate me, hence I'm inspired by anything and everything around me.
As much as I love clean design, there's also a love for grunge that resides in my creative mindset. It may not be as 'popular' as it used to but I still like to work with it.
I also have a tendency to trip up the stairs (yes it's true) and can be quite random (if you haven't figured that one out already).

Some of the clients/groups I've worked for so far include:
Aldar Academies, McDonalds, Hilton Abu Dhabi, The First Group, Beach Rotana Abu Dhabi, Vox Cinemas, Holiday Inn Express, Backstage Dubai, Better Homes LLC, Al Manzil Electronics, Meydan Group, Image Nation, Dubai Calendar, Sirocco, Panadol, Coca Cola, Omelac.
