Facilitation
As an educator, my artistic and pedagogical practices are deeply intertwined. I have consistently brought my research interests into the classroom, fostering an environment where critical inquiry and creative expression inform one another. I designed and facilitated courses in Visual Communication Design and Strategic Branding, for Undergraduate & Postgraduate level students (B.Des, M.Des) and
skill-oriented modules for Graphic Arts and Design Practices (B.Voc) as a faculty
at Srishti Manipal Institute of Art, Design & Technology, Bengaluru from Sept 2021-Jan 2025, with focus areas of Illustration, Communication, Visual Storytelling.
