I received a BFA in Graphic Design from SUNY New Paltz, whilst minoring in Psychology. Although I'm interested in all things design (almost all), some of my favorite areas include Typography, and exploring User-Centered Design. When I'm not creating you can find me listening to and exploring new music, trying to be a plant mom, and eating and exploring new foods.
But, ending up in the arts wasn't always the plan. As a matter of fact, I didn't take a single art class in high-school and was a total biology nerd.
I guess I spent a lot more time enjoying the drawing and labelling of diagrams than I did the studying part. Fun fact about me and school, is that I finished most of my schooling at an International School in India.
As a bicultural individual who has experienced both of her cultures, inclusivity in design is really important to me. I also try to always have an open-mind and am constantly working towards being a more inclusive and sustainable designer.
