Okay, so design wasn't exactly "the plan." Growing up in a middle-class Indian family, engineering felt like the obvious choice, the path most kids took. And honestly? I'm glad I did it! Engineering gave me a foundation, but it also led me to this world of design. Here, I finally get how the stuff we use every day is actually made – it's mind-blowing!

Now, I see everything through a designer's eyes. From toothbrushes to dinner plates, even this laptop I am typing this from, every product has a story, created by someone who once had a sketch or doodled something on their iPad or their sketch book. Being a tiny part of this huge design universe is pretty darn cool. Design keeps changing, so we designers have to keep learning and growing. Every day's a new challenge, a chance to sharpen my skills and quench my design thirst. There's always something new to discover, and that's what keeps me so pumped!

PS: Being a designer, I can identify every font there is , especially Poppins, so that’s an added perk!
