About
I was born and raised in India. I moved across the world in my early twenties and have been building life through curiosity ever since. I’m drawn to things that feel raw, intentional, and alive, whether that’s pushing myself through CrossFit, learning something completely new, or obsessing over tiny details. I love meeting new people, exploring unfamiliar places, and chasing the kind of moments that make life feel bigger than routine.
Build Coffee, CrossFit & Cocktail
Everything that I love in one place — I will build this for myself and Vibhor.
Sam Stephenson, Ryo, and Soleio
I saw Sam for the first time on the Dive Club podcast — I remember the next 48 hrs obsessing over everything he said about being a designer and design. Someday I hope to meet him in person. I saw Soleio baba at South Park Commons (hoping someday he will read 'baba' on my portfolio and get a good laugh). Knowing Sam, Ryo, and Soleio has been enlightening for my design journey.
Chalk up
Joined CrossFit and am very much a part of this cult now.
Oaxaca with Vibhor
Spent 3 weeks in Oaxaca Centro in a co-living space. This trip made me realize I would want something like this for myself.
Financial independence
I worked 3 jobs while doing my master's thesis to clear my debt. I have mad respect for that version of myself. I finally started my full-time Product Designer role at Salesforce.
Moved to US
As much as I enjoyed being an automobile engineer, I lacked the patience that profession demanded. I moved to Seattle to pursue a master's in Human Centered Design & Engineering from the University of Washington.
Mountains of India
Took a solo trip to do parasailing in Bir, Himachal Pradesh.
First job as an Automobile Engineer
I worked at India's largest motorcycle manufacturing company. My day-to-day role involved maintenance planning for inventory management robots. I witnessed state-of-the-art ASRS (Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems) in action.
Moved to Vellore for Undergrad school
Stepped out of home, friends, family to pursue my passion for automobiles. My love for cars comes from my dad who taught me ABC: Accelerator, Brake and Clutch. I not only got a degree, I also made friends for life.
