Available to hire
Hi, I’m Sharanaya Kumar, an art director and designer with 3+ years leading 360 campaigns at a global agency. I build brand narratives across digital, film, OOH, and retail, pairing creative vision with practical production know-how.
Known for my conceptual rigor and production fluency, I guide projects from brief to final delivery—on-set art direction, casting, styling, and post-production—while exploring new tools like AI to accelerate concepts. I love collaborating across teams, mentoring junior creatives, and crafting culturally relevant work for Gen Z and diverse audiences.
