Portrait of Gauri Chakravarti
Product Designer at Scaler · Bengaluru

My love for people’s stories and need to go beyond structure inspired me to explore the field of design.

My favourite word is possibilities.

I adore the concept of exploring ideas and bringing them to life.

Resume
Where I’m from

I’ve lived in 4 cities and changed schools 9 times.

Originally born in Davanagere, Karnataka. My mother is South Indian, and my father is from Bengal. I can speak Kannada fluently and am familiar with the Bengali alphabet.

I’ve lived in Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata and Mumbai. Each had a culture and a story of its own, and I grew up in different communities, which made me adaptable and explorative.

It’s just elementary

Thoughts and observations turned into art and inspiration. Thirteen essays so far, mostly about noticing things — seasons, silence, the teams you end up rooting for.
