Hello again!

I have a little map with some objects describing a little more about me personally and some of my favorite things to do. Hover around to find out!

If you’re looking for more about my design journey, how I got here, and my life as a designer, all of that is written in my design manifesto page – I would love for you to read it!

As always, thanks for stopping by my corner of the Internet – your support means the world to me :)

– Aashi

  • A fan of favorite book covers, including Interpreter of Maladies

    Books

    I love to read! These are some of my favorite books, most of them being contemporary literature.

  • Canoe paddles, a red backpack, and hiking boots

    Sport

    Despite my urban upbringing, I love outdoorsy things and outdoor sports. I run and swim on the regular, but I love to raft, canoe, hike, and mountain bike.

  • An Arduino board, a notebook and pen, a painting, and a watercolor set

    Creating

    I am a creator at heart; I love to tinker with robots, writing, painting, and any other forms of creation and building. (I’m a part of a lovely group of creators on campus too – check out Shift Creator Space!)

  • A mug of coffee, an iced latte, and an iced coffee

    Coffee

    There is a 90% chance you’ll find me with coffee at any given moment, and a 99% chance the coffee is an iced latte.

  • Three photos of street art

    Graffiti

    One of my favorite tourist activities is street-art hunting; the middle photo is from London, and the other two are from NYC.

  • A MetroCard, an everything bagel, and an I ♥ NY shirt

    NYC

    I’m from New York City – iron clad with everything bagels and cream cheese. New York culture has shaped who I am and has certainly broadened my perspective on how I design, and more specifically who I design for. Fun fact: me and Peter Parker/Spider-Man are from the same hometown of Forest Hills, Queens!
