Shantanu is a multidisciplinary Art Director who uses his creativity to execute impactful ideas. His work is inspired by the purpose of solving problems, crafting provocative stories, and making the world a better place. Often a visual thinker, words sometimes excite him when thinking of ideas. Speaking of words, some of his daily favorites are storytelling, solutions, strategy, and spices!

 

When not cooking ideas, he enjoys cooking authentic Indian food — so good that he often rethinks his career choice until the last bite. When not cooking at all, he enjoys spending his time getting better at new skills. His current obsessions are making 3D visuals and swinging golf clubs. Although a highly motivated creative, only dogs and dark chocolate hold the power to distract him for a few moments.
