Hi! My name is Priya
I'm an Indian-Polish-Canadian graphic designer with a passion for design that supports people and communities. From designs for The City of Calgary and Alberta University of the Arts (AUArts) to volunteer work as a Co-Chair of the RGD's Student Committee, I've had the pleasure of working on projects that positively impact communities locally and nationally.
Things I enjoy:​
-
Research & learning new things​
-
Inclusivity, accessibility, and advocacy
-
Making things (crafts, sewing, painting, photography, videos)
