Sound Artist specializing in Music, Sound Design & Virtual Reality

I hold a Bachelor's and Master's degree from the IDC School of Design, IIT Bombay. In my thesis projects, I have worked on exploring sound and music in film and virtual reality. My foundation in design thinking, filmmaking, and storytelling makes my approach to sound, unique.

After graduating, I worked on a feature film as sound recordist and music composer, followed by composing and designing sound for the award-winning 6DoF VR experience Into the Manhole — recognised at FICCI BAF, Courant3D 2025, Laval Virtual and Busan International Short Film Festival. I am currently working on a science documentary as music composer and sound designer.

Since 2022, I have been working full-time across music composition, sound design, and immersive audio — bringing a designer's precision and an artist's instinct to every project.
