Hey there!
I am Vivek. I have spent most of my life in India between Agra [born and raised], Guwahati [college], and Bangalore [work].
I completed my Bachelor in Design from IIT Guwahati in 2012. I have played multiple roles since then. Agency designer. Freelancer. Founder. Product designer. Founding designer. Product manager. Head of design. Manager. Coach. Mentor.
I love watching The Office. Beets. Bear. Battlestar Galactica. I love reading and writing. I’ll publish a travelogue someday. Someday! I have also started running recently. I love to make food and memes.
Feel free to get in touch with new opportunities, problem statements, recipes, or memes.
May the force be with you!
