Hi! My name is Priya
I'm an Indian-Polish-Canadian graphic designer & illustrator with a passion for design that supports people and communities.
My favourite parts of the design process are the early stages of research and ideation that set the foundation for new insights to be discovered. Working with The City of Calgary, the RGD, and Alberta University of the Arts has reinforced my passion for community-focused projects with an empathetic and strategic approach. I love spending time with clients and audiences to understand their unique perspectives and create something meaningful for them. ​
