Hey there, I'm Babaljit

A communication designer who is passionate about using research, strategy and design to create work that is user-centered, solves problems and tells stories.

I’m a graduate from the University of Cincinnati where I pursued a Bachelor of Science in Graphic Communication Design in the DAAP program, alongside double minors in IT and Sociology. With a user-centered mindset and a sensitivity for design, I value work that is empathetic, rich in purpose, and functional.

When I’m not designing, find me trying a new restaurant or recipe, working on a new DIY project or exploring the city. Please feel free to reach out, I’m always glad to discuss new freelance or collaborative projects and would love to connect with you.
