I am an Interaction Designer and community advocate from Ziro, passionate about creating spaces where technology, culture, and storytelling come together to spark honest exploration, real connection and reflection.
Through creative coding, interaction design, and community-led projects, I explore how our personal and shared histories shape who we are and the world around us. I’ve worked with early-stage startups, most recently as an early team member at Rocketlane, I played a significant role in shaping the early designs and user experience for Rocketlane, a client-centric onboarding & PSA platform. I have also worked in EdTech and FinTech, bringing a hands-on, collaborative approach to design.
Outside of work, I lead CuriousBeans, an initiative that raises career awareness in Northeast India, and I’m also dedicated to reviving my endangered Apatani language and heritage.
I recently graduated from multidisciplinary design education at Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design and I’m currently studying at the School for Poetic Computation, focusing on building technology that centers community and ethical practice, blending thoughtful design with meaningful impact.
