Bio
I am a creator, endlessly curious about patterns of positive change.
In my adolescent days, I worked with Plan international, as a child rights activist/ambassador, which fueled my observations & problem identification skills. As a designer, I have worked for the conceptualisation, packaging, and marketing of sustainable lifestyle products and the ideas of sustainable lifestyle, which has only accentuated my worries of how we currently do it all!
Exploring is my tool of rejuvenation, and expression is my idea of satisfaction. I have written for a newspaper; jammed with a band; and cycled with my friends. Lately, since directing a short film, I have been trying to connect new media and communication et cetera with a dire need for awareness.
Conversations fuel me! So, I invite all messages at apoorvgupta4@gmail.com
I'm passionate about
...change
An idea worth spreading
Globalism!
Areas of expertise
Art Direction, Interviewing, Journalism, Packaging Design, Service Design
The TED story
I experienced, first hand, what a conference like TEDx can do to inspire, move, and even enhance the abilities of many people involved at the first ever TEDxIIITDMJabalpur conference organised by seniors at design school. I had volunteered for the stage and design and clicked the photographs for the event too.
The following year, I was suggested by the organizer to apply for the license which felt overwhelmed at first, and responsible later.
Alongwith the fellow scholars here at IIITDM Jabalpur, I am working for organizing the second TEDx conference.
