"may you live long" / traditional sri lankan blessing
An award-winning creative specialized in Multimedia driven Brand Experiences, Shopper Marketing, and Creative Commerce. Young Lynx winner, and South Asia Book Award commendation recipient. I thrive at the intersection of design and storytelling, where visuals and narratives work together to create powerful, lasting impressions. My work has helped global brands such as Coca-Cola, TikTok, Jotun, Lucid Motors, Wynn Resorts and Adidas craft immersive experiences that drive conversion.
My passion for visual storytelling goes beyond the world of brands. Short films I’ve written and directed have screened in multiple international festivals, and my graphic novel ‘Enlightened’ (published by Simon & Schuster) received praise from WSJ, Publishers Weekly, Kirkus and more. You’re also likely to stumble across my digital illustration work where I build worlds, create characters, and occasionally break the rules.
