Creative Strategist | Associate Creative Director | Marketplace & Digital Design Specialist

With 12+ years in design and marketing, I help brands stand out in the digital and marketplace landscape. As an Associate Creative Director at HiveMinds, I lead creative teams to develop conversion-driven content for Ecommerce and Quick Commerce platforms.

I’ve worked with brands like Mars, Titan, IFB, V-Guard, BigBasket, Abbott, Crompton, and Pidilite, crafting brand stores, PDPs, A+ content, and performance creatives that drive real results.

Beyond marketplace design, I specialize in digital campaigns, branding, packaging and social media, blending storytelling with data-driven insights to create engaging, high-impact experiences. Passionate about innovation and consumer behavior, I push creative boundaries to deliver work that connects, converts, and leaves a lasting impression.

About me

I've spent over a decade working with brands, creating digital products, and building interactive experiences.
The best designers aren’t just creatives—they’ve got a bit of strategist in them, a bit of researcher, and they stay plugged into culture. I’ve been lucky to work with some brilliant strategists, researchers, and operators who’ve shaped my craft and helped me see the bigger picture.


Growing and nurturing

I started as a Graphic Designer, building a strong foundation in branding, digital media, and advertising. As I grew into Senior Designer and Creative Lead roles, I expanded into digital marketing, social media, and performance-driven design, ensuring every creative had both impact and purpose.

Over time, I found my niche in marketplace and quick commerce platforms, specializing in Amazon, Flipkart, Blinkit, Zepto, and Swiggy Instamart. From PDPs and A+ content to brand stores and performance creatives, I’ve helped brands enhance engagement and conversions through strategic design.

Now, as an Associate Creative Director, I lead creative teams, shape strategy, and collaborate across business, marketing, and content to deliver high-performing, results-driven creatives. My journey has been about evolving from execution to leadership, blending storytelling, consumer insights, and innovation to create meaningful brand experiences.

Frames, feels & a splash of inspiration

To me, movies aren’t just stories—they’re masterclasses in mood, magic, and meaning. The way a single frame can say so much, the way color whispers a feeling, or how silence can scream louder than words—it all blows my mind and feeds my creativity. Great storytellers and visual wizards have unknowingly mentored me through the screen, shaping how I see design: as storytelling with pixels and purpose. Here’s a bunch of films that stuck with me—visually, emotionally, and somewhere deep in the creative gut.
