The hand behind
the stitch

A passionate and curious NIFT graduate, recipient of the NIFT Meritorious Award (Rank 1). My design philosophy centres on storytelling through garments — every drape, motif and thread carries a narrative. Always eager to learn, experiment and grow, I push creative boundaries and bring fresh perspectives to fabric.
