Leading the initiative at the ADI Jaipur Chapter has been a journey of immense pride and discovery. Looking back at our timeline - from the camaraderie of the 'Designer's Potluck' to the collaborative spirit of our 'Open Studio' sessions - it is inspiring to see how the design community in Jaipur has come together. ADI has provided the perfect platform to not only advocate for design professionals but to create a vibrant ecosystem where seasoned experts and emerging talent can exchange ideas. As we step into 2026, I am more excited than ever about the impact we are creating together.

As a senior designer and active member of the ADI Nagpur Chapter, the association has been a meaningful platform to connect with fellow designers, stay engaged with evolving design practices, and strengthen the local design ecosystem. Being part of ADI Nagpur has given me a strong sense of belonging and purpose, and the opportunity to contribute meaningfully towards building a connected, vibrant, and future-ready design community for our region. As President of the ADI Nagpur Chapter, my experience with the association has been deeply rewarding. Working closely with industry bodies, academic institutions and the MSME ecosystem has reinforced my belief in the power of ADI as a catalyst for regional collaboration and growth

My journey with ADI has been truly special for me. I started as a student attendee, then became a student volunteer, and today, being part of the Organizing members feels like a real full-circle moment. Every stage of this journey taught me something new and helped me grow in confidence, leadership, and teamwork. Working closely with mentors and peers in such a creative and supportive environment has been very rewarding. ADI is a place that genuinely encourages learning, collaboration, and turning ideas into meaningful impact.

Being part of the ADI Indore Chapter was a wonderful and enriching experience. Working on Indore Design Festival and UX Lighthouse events was truly inspiring. Collaborating with such creative and passionate people made it memorable. Every interaction, from major events to small meet-ups, was meaningful and fun.
