About me | My Site

Hello,

I’m Rakesh ✌🏽—a designer, problem solver, and creator, working remotely from the soulful city of Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India. I thrive on optimism, love tackling real-world challenges, and enjoy turning the ordinary into something fun. Whether it’s refining user experiences or experimenting with new materials, creativity is at the heart of everything I do.

Nothing excites me more than seeing my designs make a real impact—solving problems, enhancing businesses, and improving lives. I bring this to life through deep design research and strong team collaboration. Currently, I’m growing with NetBramha, a design studio that has given me incredible opportunities to work with brands like Sixt, Muthoot, Hindustan Live Mint, TransUnion CIBIL, and Datanimbus. Every project is a new challenge, and I love every bit of it! 🚀

My passion for learning goes beyond design. In 2017, I earned my Bachelor’s in Design from the National Institute of Fashion Technology, Patna. But my curiosity didn’t stop there—I’m also deeply fascinated by astrology, which led me to pursue a degree in it as well 🔮. I’m always exploring new online courses to grow both professionally and personally because knowledge is endless, and I never want to stop discovering! ✨
