Mrinal in cap and gown at her Parsons School of Design graduation

Hi, I’m Mrinal!

I am a visual designer and strategist based in New York City.

I build brand identities, campaigns, and the print and digital work around them.

I am drawn to design that genuinely changes how people think, act, and experience the world. Most recently, I have been leading brand and visual design for a system-wide reform effort at the United Nations Executive Office of the Secretary-General, making complex institutional work feel clearer.

I believe design builds trust in work that matters.
