With 5+ years of experience across graphic, visual, and UX/UI design, I help brands and product teams turn ideas into clear, polished, and purposeful digital experiences. I create on-brand digital assets for websites, learning platforms, and immersive content that balance strong visual execution with usability and structure. My work goes beyond making things look good — I design layouts and components that are consistent, scalable, and easy for teams to maintain. I help teams turn ideas, briefs, and half-formed concepts into clear, on-brand design assets that are ready to use across digital and print. What you gain is consistency, momentum, and fewer design headaches. I don’t just design screens or assets in isolation. I think in systems — how designs fit together, how they’ll be reused, and how they’ll be handed off. I selectively use AI-enabled tools during early exploration and iteration to test variations, speed up decision-making, and improve clarity, while keeping all final design decisions human-led and detail-driven. I’m comfortable stepping into ongoing projects, picking up existing brand guidelines, and quietly making things better: refining hierarchy, tightening visuals, and reducing rework for marketing, content, and development teams. You’ll get dependable delivery, thoughtful execution, and design that supports your goals rather than competing with them. If you’re looking for a designer who combines strong visual craft, smart use of AI, and a calm, collaborative working style, I’d be happy to support your next project.

    uniE621 Rebranding and digital establishment of Shribalaji Integrated Solutions Pvt Ltd (SBISPL)
    This project involved the complete rebranding and digital establishment of Shribalaji Integrated Solutions Pvt Ltd (SBISPL), a company with over 25 years of experience in the welding and structural steel industry. The goal was to replace an "old-school" logo with a unique, contemporary identity suitable for trademarking and to build a professional company website. My role in this project was to offer design solutions as a graphic designer and a UX UI designer to create a visually compelling and impactful re-branding experience via logo design, web design and other print and digital collaterals supporting the business. Key Challenges • Traditional vs. Modern Balance: As a designer I faced the challenge of creating a modern, unique logo for a brand name with highly traditional connotations ("Shribalaji"). • Global Comprehensiveness: There was a concern that using the traditional word “Shri” in the logo might limit understanding in global markets. • Limited Web Content: For professional confidentiality reasons, the client provided very specific, limited information, making it difficult to build a robust and compelling website experience. • Trademark Issues: The original logo was sourced from an online website and was not unique enough for legal trademark purposes. Design Solutions • Symbolic Logo Amalgamation: The designer created a concept that merged traditional faith with a modern outlook. The logo features: ◦ A flame, representing welding energy and positivity, cleverly shaped as a Hindi vowel sign (“matra”) to denote the syllable "shri". ◦ A torchbearer symbol at the heart of the mark to represent the company leading with its core values. • Strategic Color Palette: The project utilized "Flame Orange" (symbolizing heat and energy) and "Iron Grey" (representing the craftsmanship of working with metals) to ensure high legibility and contrast. • Content Curation: To address the lack of text, I personally curated content based on the company’s vision and core principles to ensure the brand message was communicated effectively. • User-Centric Web Design: The website was built with a "mobile-first" mindset and an intuitive information hierarchy, ensuring that even with limited content, the user experience remained seamless and professional. logo graphicdesigner illustrator branding webdesigner designer photo
    uniE621 Complete Branding Package: ITHRIVE an online coaching platform.
    ITHRIVE is an online coaching platform focused on personal growth and resilience. My role in this project was to offer design solutions as a graphic designer and a UX UI designer to create a visually compelling and impactful brand experience via logo design, web design and other print and digital collaterals supporting the business. The ITHRIVE visual identity relies on specific symbolism and a purposeful color palette to communicate its core values of growth and resilience. The logo intricately combines two birds to represent the foundation of the brand: • The Owl: This mascot represents the brand's mission. It symbolizes knowledge, introspection, and the strength required to seek answers deep within oneself. • The Eagle: This mascot represents the brand's vision. It embodies being strategically aligned and farsighted, with the ability to look far into the horizon while still paying attention to the greatest details. • The Combination: By merging these two, the logo captures the "coming together of a vision with a mission," which the designer identified as the core of a strong entity The design of the ITHRIVE visual identity involved several key challenges, ranging from conceptual logo development to practical application and user experience. To overcome these hurdles, as a visual designer I worked closely with the client to curate richer content and utilized a purposeful color palette and specific typefaces like Noto Serif and Poppins to maintain a professional yet friendly appearance. The branding project features a logo combining an owl and eagle to symbolize knowledge and vision. The UX/UI design employs a gold, black, and grey palette to ensure professionalism and trust. logo graphicdesigner webdesigner branding designer illustrator
