Jharna hails from the hallowed halls of NIFT. So, it's safe to say that art is in her blood. It's also safe to say that she didn't choose a career in design; no, design chose her, claimed her, moulded her.

Aditya Warrier
Copywriter. Internet Explorer. Digital Hermit.
Aditya’s curiosity has always pulled him off the beaten path, whether he likes it or not. This propensity for inadvertent exploration was transformed into a gallery of obsessions by early forays into the digital world; far sooner than 9 out of 10 dentists would recommend. Armed with a communications degree and a love for storytelling, he’s navigated a fittingly mercurial career arc — ranging from amateur experiments in design to professional copywriting, with a corporate interlude in technical writing.
Currently, he's waiting on the inevitability of someone penning his memoirs. Any day now.
Superpowers: Absurdly interested in the mundane
