I am a multi-disciplinary designer from Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Currently, I am investigating the design of user interfaces for Virtual Reality (VR) as a doctoral researcher at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati.
I began my professional journey by joining Uber's communiction design team as a design consultant/ intern in 2017 upon completing my post-graduation. Subsequently, I designed visuals and user interfaces for companies and organisations such as Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) Observatory, Lenovo, MetroDigital, Hike and others for about the next four years. These experiences paved the way for my current role as a full-time doctoral researcher interested in immersive media design.
