I am a student with a passion for intricate details, heritage crafts and style. Indian fabric weaving, traditions and values fascinate me a lot. Conducting research about Indian textiles is one of my interest and I have visited a few textile industries to gain more practical knowledge. I have a dream of owning textile industry in future. I am interested to weave different fabrics and create my own story. I like to design them with block printing, embroidery or digital prints. Designer by passion and profession!
