Hey everyone! I’m Honey, and my time at RIT has been an incredible journey. I recently graduated with an MFA in Visual Communication Design, but I’m still diving deep into my thesis work and currently doing a co-op. Before RIT, I studied Business and Mass Communication back in India, where I also ran a calligraphy coaching class, teaching over 100 students. That’s where my love for lettering and design really took off.

At RIT, I had the privilege of learning from some of the best faculty in the program, which really shaped my design journey. The projects I worked on in the course led to global recognition, including Graphics New Talent 2024, and I’ll be featured in Bloomsbury Publishing's "Mastering Type" — definitely a highlight! I worked as a design assistant for the Graduate School, which sharpened my skills and gave me fresh perspectives. Outside of design, I love decorating, traveling, cooking, and content creation. These passions keep my creativity alive. RIT has been such a meaningful chapter in my life, and I’m excited for whatever comes next!
