Lead Designer for Three Fashion Shows: A Lesson in Collaboration and Attention to Detail
I've had the incredible opportunity to serve as the lead designer for three separate fashion shows, where I was responsible for conceptualizing and producing over 20 unique pieces of women's apparel to be presented on the runway. I worked closely with models, stylists, and other key members of the fashion industry to bring my vision to life, and the end result was always a beautiful, memorable display of fashion and art.
These experiences taught me a great deal about the importance of collaboration, attention to detail, and the sheer hard work that goes into creating something truly remarkable.
Co-founding an organization for social change in India & providing light to underdeveloped areas in Mumbai.
I co-founded an organization dedicated to driving social change in India and forging a lasting connection between the United States and India. One of our most impactful projects involved designing and building lights for underdeveloped areas in Mumbai. We worked closely with local communities to transform artwork created by local teenagers into long-lasting wall lights.
Through this project, we were able to provide not only a source of light but also a source of inspiration and hope for those living in these marginalized communities.
