Rubin Museum of Himalayan Art 🎶 


Prior to the closure of the Rubin Museum of Himalayan Art, I was responsible for creating event promotional material and social media deliverables for musicians and DJs. Our programming highlighted musicians from the Himalayan and South Asian disaspora. I developed flexible, reusable branding systems to streamline and reduced the cost to produce the podcast and event marketing graphics. I used Powerpoint, Figma, and Aftereffects to create simple animations for Instagram and Facebook ads.


AWAKEN Podcast (Seasons 2–4)

AWAKEN is a Webby Honoree podcast created by the Rubin about the dynamic path to enlightenment and what it means to “wake up.” 

Throughout the series the podcast dives into the personal stories of guests who share how they’ve experienced a shift in their awareness, and as a result, their perspective on life. I worked on three seasons to create templatized deliverables, transcripts, and merchandise for the podcast.


AWAKEN Season 3 Visual Identity

K2 Friday Night Digital Flyer Templates

I created Powerpoint templates with replaceable images and copy for the Marketing & Communications team and Programming team.

I was also responsible for the visual direction and merchandise for AWAKEN Season 2 hosted by Indian-American R&B Singer Raveena Aurora.
