I was born and raised in the vibrant and multicultural country of the India. From there, my journey has taken me to the warm Bay Area of California, USA, to my current home in the naturesque town of Reading, United Kingdom.

As a child, I was captivated by folk stories, classical animated cartoons, and the colourful world of Indian art. This passion led me to pursue a Master’s in Illustration from Maharaja Sayajirao University, Vadodara (2009). I began my career working at major studios before transitioning to freelancing after becoming a mother. My enthusiasm for children's book illustration led me to join Pathways into Children’s Publishing (2023–2024), where I was mentored by award-winning illustrator David Litchfield and guided by top publishers like Walker Books and Penguin Random House.

Today, my illustration style is a blend of traditional media such as watercolours, gouache, and inks, combined with digital techniques for ease of edits and production. My work captures pictorial concepts, evokes emotions, and conveys moods through aesthetic colour schemes, all while delivering compelling visual storytelling.

In the past couple of years, I have illustrated two commissioned picture books, Always Here (2021) and Little Shouty (2023), two Children’s book titles for an Autumn project with Literacy Pirates (2024). Currently, I’m illustrating a commissioned picture book, Busy Baby Boy (coming out in 2025), and volunteering illustrations for Settle Stories.

Beyond illustration, I run an after-school art club Creative Oasis where I share my love for art with young creators. When I’m not illustrating, I enjoy urban sketching, dancing, cooking, and volunteering at local community events.

With my portfolio now ready, I’m eager to partner with publishers and agents to bring captivating picture books and middle-grade fiction stories to life. I am passionate about creating inclusive and diverse stories that reflect a wide range of voices, cultures, and experiences. I welcome collaborative projects and commissions that inspires next generation with storytelling magic.

Fell free to get in touch for new commissions and illustration Projects. Thank you.
