I'm a textile design graduate from NIFT with hands-on internship and collaboration experience across Guwahati, Shillong and New Delhi. I enjoy bridging creativity with craft, exploring surface textures, garment silhouettes, and print development to tell textile stories. I focus on research and concept development to produce textiles that respect cultural narratives, and I love collaborating with artisans and sustainable fabrics to create impactful textiles. I value clear storytelling through design, collaborative problem-solving, and iterative development—from concept to final textile pieces—while staying curious about materials and techniques that shape contemporary collections.
