A Bit About Me
I’m Aavrati, currently I live in Toronto and have graduated in M.Des. Strategic Foresight and innovation, (think of it as an MBA from Mars). I value life experiences through practicing and learning while viewing myself as curious and ever evolving being. With a focus on climate action practices and people's evolving relationship with it, I draw on participatory design, co-design, data analytics, systemic thinking and doing, foresight, experimentation through a collaborative process.

In my spare time I like to practice solving sudoku and make art mostly. I’m always down to hearing about new projects, so feel free to drop me a text.
