I am a designer, illustrator and artist with an instinct for strategy and a background that doesn't fit neatly into one box — a Chartered Accountant who trained at the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad, and has spent seven years doing work that sits somewhere between business thinking and creative making.

I work with founders, leadership teams and institutions to build brands that start from the inside out — grounded in what an organisation genuinely is, before thinking about what it should look like. That work spans strategy, identity, campaign, UX and production, across India, the USA, Europe and Asia.

Alongside that, I illustrate — books, campaigns, visual worlds. It is a different kind of making, and one I take just as seriously.

I’ve worked with top design studios across strategic, creative, and collaborative roles.

"It's always a joy to work with Pallavi. Always brimming with enthusiasm to bring all her talent to the table. Have seen her grow from being a graphic designer to an excellent brand strategist and design thinking professional. Her strength lies in her deep research driven approach and effective translation of all the consumer insights into delightful design solutions. She is tremendously versatile with her wonderful illustration abilities and always keen to take the design projects to the next level. She is a team player and always willing to explore creative possibilities with an open mind."
