Hello!
"My name is Kunal Gujar, and I am an Indian multidisciplinary designer with over 2+ years of professional experience in industrial and digital product design, and currently based out of Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
My previous experiences have groomed me into a global designer with a multi-dimensional approach. I am confident about working in an international context within cross-cultural teams on a diverse range of projects. I consider myself a multi-utility designer, who is always ready to skill up himself for any task, this ability has conditioned me to be an efficient designer. As a passionate learner, I always look forward to immersing myself in different domains of design to nurture my professional personality. I hope to engage and collaborate with new people and explore exciting opportunities. Please feel free to connect with me anytime, to talk about any new endeavors or discuss design over a cup of coffee!
Thank you for your time!"
