WHO AM I??
Passionate Graphic Designer and Artist based in Bentonville, Arkansas.
From a young age, I have been fascinated by art and colors, using signs and billboards to memorize streets and directions. Through my classes at Michaels, I discovered that my passion was for creating visually appealing and delicious works of art. I also learned that I was capable of more than I ever thought possible. With a keen eye for detail, creativity, and innovation, I bring a unique perspective and style to every project I work on. I am proficient in using various design software and tools and constantly stay up-to-date with the latest trends and techniques to enhance my work.
Collaboration is key, and I strive to work closely with clients to ensure their vision and goals are met in every design. I excel in fast-paced environments and enjoy the challenge of meeting deadlines while maintaining quality and precision. Whether it's branding, website design, or marketing materials, I am committed to delivering outstanding designs that capture attention and make a lasting impact.
PERSONAL LIFE
Born and raised in India, I grew up traveling across the country due to my father's job, giving me the opportunity to learn various languages and cultures. This has become one of my greatest strengths. In 2012, I moved to Saint Louis, MO, where I lived for about 10 years with my husband and daughter and called it my home. As the newest addition to the Northwest Arkansas Art and Cultural region (as of 2023), I am excited about the new chapter of my life here in Bentonville, and I am looking forward to exploring and contributing to the region's art scene.
PROFESSIONAL LIFE
I started my career volunteering for Catchafire, a website that connects professionals with non-profits in need of their skills. As an intern, I worked and volunteered for a Construction Forum a non-profit that supports young adults to get into construction. At Construction Forum, I designed logos, branding, web pages, print materials, and social media graphics. I also worked closely with the team to develop a comprehensive design strategy for other organizations that supported Women in Construction and helped develop a comprehensive website that showcased details about various skilled trades.
I currently support and volunteer for Shivalli Kutumba of North America whose interest is in preserving and promoting cultural activities and bringing together all VIPRA (the way of life) families from the ancestral South Canara region.
As a freelancer, I work for Ra-Ve Cultural Foundation, a non-profit that brings real-world arts experiences to Northwest Arkansas. They are a registered non-profit dedicated to promoting Indian performing arts in NWA. In this role, I've designed posters, flyers, and brochures, and even helped with the update of their website. Even though nonprofit work had never occurred to me when I started, I have always enjoyed working and volunteering for non-profits that share a strong mission.
Professionally, I am a Graphic Designer and Marketing Coordinator at Focus Commercial Real Estate Group handling their marketing materials, events, and their website.
