About

Born in Kathmandu, and shaped by the Bay Area of San Francisco

I’m a multidisciplinary designer with a passion for storytelling, emotional design, and emerging technologies. My work spans branding, web, and product experiences, always with a focus on crafting thoughtful, interactive, and visually rich solutions.
‍
I’ve collaborated with cross-functional teams to design intuitive flows, build design systems, and bring playful, human-centered ideas to life. I’m especially drawn to projects that blend creativity and technology to spark wonder, where every detail helps tell a story.
‍
I am also trained as a graphic designer, shaped by my education at California College of the Arts. My passion lies in uncovering core problems and transforming them into functional, beautifully designed interactive solutions.

This drive toward creating impactful, aesthetically refined products fuels my love for design keeping me inspired and continually challenged.
