About

I'm a multidisciplinary designer based in New Delhi, trained in Graphic Design at the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad. I currently lead Adobe’s Document Cloud design team in India, shaping strategy and user experiences for Acrobat. In the past, I’ve led teams in India supporting Adobe’s professional design tools — including Illustrator, InDesign, Xd, and emerging technologies. I enjoy working at the intersection of storytelling, technology, and human experience. Over the last two decades and more, I’ve helped build and scale design teams, led platform transformations, and collaborated with publishing houses, cultural institutions, and global enterprises. In 2002, I founded the studio OH! to explore narrative-driven design through branding, packaging, publishing, and exhibitions. To me, great design is like a great chair — it supports you without calling attention to itself, intuitive yet intentional, inviting you to stay awhile. It’s crafted with empathy, built to last, and tested in the real world. At its best, design isn’t just functional — it feels right. That’s the standard I try to hold: clarity, craft, and comfort — not as luxuries, but as a form of respect. For people’s bodies, and their brains.
