Hi there! 

I am Navya, a multi-disciplinary designer, freelancer, and activist from India. Passionate about social design, leverage storytelling, bold visuals, and humanity-centered strategiesto amplify my creative delivery. My ultimate goal is to establish myself as a purpose-driven leader and use my work to engage and inspire.

My expertise spans UI/UX design, design research, creative strategy, digital marketing, and brand identity development, complemented by an unwavering love for all things graphic design! 

Beyond my professional pursuits, I am a sucker for collecting art and design books, a co-founder of a podcast, an unapologetic Notion nerd, and a proud owner of what I like to call ‘Visual OCD,’ ensuring every detail aligns just right.
