Rohan Pawar (b. 1998, Rochester NY) is a product designer and artist living in Brooklyn. He grew up on guitar cables, immigrant grit, and an itch to understand how things work. The habit of asking ‘why’ turned into a love of systems, which led him to work with institutions like Google, New York Life, and Lord Abbett. He’s had Vignelli's 1972 NYC Subway Map posted on his bedroom wall since college. These days he’s focused on building digital experiences that make sense, feel good, and don’t waste your time. So yeah, hit him up if you want to build something great.
