My name’s Kartike. I was raised in Boston and now living in SoCal; currently leading design and building ventures at BCG X’s venture capital arm in Los Angeles.
Previously at Deloitte Studios & Accenture
In 2012 I embarked on a creative sabbatical of designing my own major and became one of the very few graduates of UMass Amherst's BDIC program. I specialized in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) from UMass and Design (product & interaction) from Spain’s oldest design institute, Elisava. It remains one of my most creatively stimulating ventures.
Design and technology are my bread & butter that feed my passion for unforgettable moments of storytelling. I love building new products from scratch and optimizing existing ones so they perform better from both a user and business perspective but also I tend to thrive in the unconventional.
When not working 👨🏻💻
I usually spend my time remixing music, trading penny stocks, editing old photos, and most importantly — catching California sunsets. My Instagram is sometimes private but I also run another small public profile to showcase my love for #ShotoniPhone photography as sampled below:
