About me

Hello. I'm Deepak. I'm originally from Punjab, India, but I've lived most of my life in Mumbai (Navi Mumbai). For the past three years, I lived in Bangalore, where I worked as a product designer.

Growing up, I had just one goal: to become an officer in the Indian Navy, following in my dad's footsteps (he was a sailor). That dream didn't end up coming to life, so I tried finding something else I could dream about. I discovered design during the chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic. What started with learning web design on Udemy soon turned into freelancing and then to full-time roles.

Over the years, I've found a liking towards working in teams where there's a collective sense of purpose towards building something that challenges the status quo. I've always believed that the best teams are made up of people who look out for those on their left and right. Whether it's changing the world or simply making someone's day a little easier, I enjoy owning and working on all sorts of problems from start to finish.

Outside of work, you'll probably find me trying to practice some of the greatest guitar solos ever written, getting humbled by people who are much better than me at Muay Thai, playing soccer, or assembling cute LEGO sets.
