Hey, I’m Sharm. 👋
I design and build products across games, emerging platforms, and spatial interfaces, with a focus on creative R&D and the kind of work that doesn't have a template. Over the past decade I've led design for major entertainment and government initiatives. At Deloitte, I work across the full product lifecycle: early R&D, 3D animation, VR training simulations, and launching platform experiences from the ground up, work that has shaped product strategy and helped secure multi-million dollar investments.
I've also built interactive experiences for Nickelodeon, designed systems for Joe Biden's 2020 presidential campaign, designed a Kickstarter campaign for a Ruth Bader Ginsburg action figure, and worked on next-gen projects for Walt Disney and federal intelligence agencies.
Background: I completed my BFA at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, then spent a few years working and slowly paying off $250K in student loans before returning for the MFADT program at Parsons. Fortunately, I paid those off too. 😇 I grew up across the northeast and have a passion for drawing. Outside of work I'm at the gym debugging my squat form, compositing frames for my next animated short, building an app that nobody asked for, or starting a new side quest. I've recently started building my own game engine and platform, but that's a story for another time.
Education:
MFA: Design and Technology - The New School, Parsons School of Design,
New York City BFA: Communication Design - Pratt Institute, New York City
