Shantanu is a multidisciplinary creative who uses his skills to craft impactful brand ideas. His work solves problems, builds brands, tells provocative stories, and makes 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 delicious food, so good that he often rethinks his career choice—only until the last bite.

When not cooking at all, he enjoys spending his time on new skills. His current obsessions are making 3D visuals, tinkering with AI, and swinging golf clubs. Although a highly motivated creative, only motorbikes and dogs can distract him.
