ABOUT ME
A multifaceted creative and designer driven by a belief that design is more than aesthetics; it’s problem-solving with purpose.
Currently completing my BFA in Graphic Design with a Minor in Advertising and Branding at Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), I’ve built my journey through a blend of agency experience and independent practice, leading creative projects across India, Southeast Asia, and beyond.
My work spans branding, web design, digital campaigns, and creative direction; serving clients that range from international corporations to cultural movements. Whether leading rebrands for global FMCG leaders like Deoleo (the world’s largest olive oil producer) and DD Bricks (the world’s largest reseller of pre-loved LEGO® parts), or designing campaigns for MAC Cosmetics and sports giants like the Rajasthan Royals, every project I take on is rooted in intentionality, empathy, and excellence.
MY JOURNEY
My identity as a Naga designer informs my perspective: grounded, community-oriented, and deeply human. From my early fine arts training in Hong Kong to building my one-man agency during the pandemic, each chapter has taught me resilience, leadership, and the value of design that honors what’s in front of you.
Today, I lead as a Creative Director for international agencies and brands, bridging cultures and disciplines. My approach combines strategic thinking and storytelling, crafting visual languages that are both meaningful and globally resonant.
I believe in creating from a place of empathy and honor; building authentic, impact-driven design that bridges creativity, strategy, and human connection.
Each project is an opportunity to shape culture, to inspire thought, and to create beauty that endures. For me, design is both craft and calling; a reflection of faith, purpose, and the pursuit of excellence.
MY JOURNEY
Outside of design, I express my curiosity through speaking, writing, and hosting The Munguli Sangtam Podcast; a space for raw and honest conversations about creativity, faith, and identity. The podcast has well over half a million YouTube views and 4M+ impressions, fostering a growing community of thinkers and dreamers.
I also speak at creative gatherings and college events, discussing design leadership, cultural identity, and intentional living. These platforms allow me to give back; to inspire young creatives to pursue meaning, not just mastery, in their work.
“We were really excited to start working with Mung. The journey was absolutely exciting and very fun. The support we have received from the very first day and the special care. During this whole process, we learn so many things about our business. We learn so much of who we want to be as a brand, what we actually want to do as a company. The discovery sessions are absolutely insightful and amazing!
I have never felt so good working with someone in terms of caring, listening and understanding the needs that we have as a company.
It’s so much more than just getting a new logo, website or material for your marketing. It’s really a journey where you will learn a lot about yourself and what your company actually wants to achieve. This is absolutely the right place to go to!
