Before I ever wrote a line of JavaScript, I told stories through visuals, writing, and design experiments. From documenting atrocity and resilience on the ground for The Wire to shaping the visual voice for the headlines at Hindustan Times, I learned how narratives move through people. At Fields of View, I wove art, data, and design into participatory games and tools for policymaking, and at the Ambedkar Reading Circle, I fused systems thinking, dramaturgy and code to create Dramas of Discrimination — an open-source toolkit for inclusive practices.

Today, as a fullstack developer at beneathAtree, I continue to draw from the same creative instincts. And my interactive digital art continues to explore the intersection of personal archives, inherited emotions, and the political — imagining the web as a space for artistic expression and self-reflection.

Side projects I am currently working on:
