About

For me value creation is the essence of design. As an Interaction Designer I am sensitive towards technology and social trends. I try to derive greater value from existing technologies and systems as well as envision a tomorrow which is socially responsible. For me design is a tool to enhance human interaction to make it more meaningful.
