Namaskar /ˌnʌmʌsˈkɑː/
noun. a traditional Indian greeting or gesture of respect

I am a designer and educator based in Philadelphia. I believe that architecture is inseparable from a deep understanding of culture and history. It is in history that I find solace, and it is poetry that I seek for in everything else. I strive to be a designer that helps create memorable, sustainable places for people and help them find their own meaning of beauty.

I am from Ahmedabad, a lovely city in India packed with architectural diversity and a uniquely colourful history. My cultural identity is the anchor-point of my personality, for the ideas that I have and the ways in which I perceive the world come from an inherent understanding of my heritage.

I have a love-affair with cooking. Sometimes I code and very, very rarely, I try to write poetry.
