I am a driven and passionate individual who seeks new challenges and opportunities to grow both personally and professionally.

I have strong familial roots in both Norway and India and prioritize traveling to new places in order to widen my perspective. I recently bought a house in Louisville Kentucky and am enjoying working on projects around the house and yard. I am currently working as the Lead Product Designer at Halo Products Group. We are working to develop innovative outdoor cooking products that deliver solutions to unmet needs within the industry. When I’m not at work, I like to cook, bike, run, and explore the city.

My childhood shaped me into an observer.

When I was three years old I was diagnosed with the auto immune disorder Alopecia Areata. Even though growing up as a girl without hair was difficult, it set the groundwork for the strong woman I have become. What used to be a shyness evolved into an appreciation of observation. I like to pay attention, watch, listen- all with the goal of understanding how the people and things around me work.

I’ve always been particular about the products I buy and use.

But it wasn’t until I spent a year in Norway at an outdoor survival school that I began to realize the true importance of product functionality. I realized the products you carry with you have the capability of ruining an experience— or making it. A faulty ski binding can result in having to walk back down a mountain to fetch the runaway ski. A lunch container with improper ventilation can result in half the week’s lunches turning moldy. But a baselayer that keeps you at the right temperature and fits perfectly goes unnoticed. Unnoticed because it allows you to focus on the fun of a trip out in the mountains.
