ABOUT ME Born in New Delhi, I have lived in Singapore, Mumbai and Los Angeles. Having extensively travelled across Mumbai and Dubai, I have curated a global lens for architecture and urbanism. For my thesis, I am working on a monument inspired by the tension between ancient and modern material systems. Additionally I am working on a book about water urbanism and architecture in the desert state of Rajasthan, India.
