Hi! I’m Diya, a creative technologist, designer, and lifelong storyteller who loves bringing ideas to life.
I’m currently pursuing my MBA at Rochester Institute of Technology, building on my background in New Media Interactive Development and Psychology. My work sits at the intersection of creativity, technology, and people. Whether I’m developing an interactive experience, managing a team, creating a social campaign, or designing a workshop, I’m always interested in how ideas can become experiences that people connect with.
I’ve had the opportunity to work across product management, marketing, game development, interactive media, and student leadership. These experiences have taught me that I enjoy being the person who can move between the big picture and the small details: figuring out what we’re trying to accomplish, understanding who we’re creating for, and then helping turn that vision into something tangible.
Outside of work and school, I’m drawn to storytelling in all its forms. I’m a game designer, an artist, and someone who has always loved creating worlds and inviting other people into them. I enjoy experimenting, learning new things, and finding unexpected connections between my interests.
At the core of everything I do is a simple idea: good experiences are built around people. I want to create things that are not only functional or visually engaging, but that make people curious, excited, connected, or inspired to participate.
