Resumé

I am working at R&D Styling, Tvs Motors, Hosur as a Transportation Designer since may 2009.

I was working as a design intern at Tvs in the winter of 2007. Before that, I was interning with Matharoo Associates, where I was involved in some customised vehicle projects.

My Masters Thesis project was The Audi Panzerspahwagen, a luxury SUV for 2020. This vehicle looked at radically altering the historical genesis of the SUV for Audi, and called forth vetran armoured vehicles manufactured by Auto Union during WWII.

I was formerly associated with a somewhat varied range of architectural projects during my undergrad years: interior design, residences, institutional projects, presentation drawings, CG visualizations, and some installations.

My architectural thesis was about the reunification of one of the most active yet paradoxically perennially dead and disjointed districts in new delhi: pragati maidan - zoological gardens - old fort area. the key project in this was the relocated natural history museum, which served as an urban bridge between the different zones.
