Hey—I'm Arjun. I'm a Staff Product Designer shaping company strategy at Kickstarter. I'm trained in architecture and computer science, and love producing music, helicopter-parenting my plants, and prototyping. Check out my work & get to know me.

I set strategy that increased Kickstarter's pledge volume by an additional $2M per month.

I designed Think with Google's most trafficked site - a free tool for businesses to evaluate and improve their mobile site speed.

I helped story lovers discover and seamlessly switch between reading on Kindle and listening on Audible.

I helped Session, a boutique Brooklyn training studio, tell their story and increase their online bookings.

I coded an algorithm that generates environmentally considerate and site contextual architecture.

I helped realize the complex forms of Frank Gehry's Battersea Power Station.

I conducted research into flocking algorithms and their application in architecture.

I designed and built an art installation on the roof of the MOCA with some of my peers.

I designed and built an interactive meditation room with some like-minded co-workers.

I developed a series of posters for my weekly in-office DJ sessions.

I explored the relationship between sound and sight with Three.js.

I used Processing to develop generative artwork inspired by ink in water.

All work. All play.

Currently, I am involved in the strategic planning for the next three years at Kickstarter. Leveraging my past experiences at the company conducting research into new markets, improving platform trust, and optimizing our backer experience, I am shaping the strategy and roadmap that enable Kickstarter to achieve its mission over the next 3 years.

Over the years I've adopted the persona Creative License as the umbrella for my music production, DJing, break-dancing, graphic design, & other flavor of the month creative endeavors.

I just released ENDORPHINS, a short pack of edits on Bandcamp, with 100% of proceeds going towards the Okra Project, an inspiring initiative focused on providing home-cooked meals to Black Trans people. To date ENDORPHINS has raised $1,050 dollars.
