ABOUT SANGEETA
During my sabbatical as a freelance artist in my studio (Spicyseed Art & Design), my mission was to use creativity as a fuel for social change and community education. I organized philanthropic and volunteer events where I shared art as a therapeutic and educational medium for local communities.
​
My seminar on teaching small businesses how to afford good design on a tight budget was featured in Chicago’s Women’s Business Development Center’s annual report, where I shared the cover with four other exceptional women entrepreneurs.
Through many years of hard work and dedication, I’ve established a strong career in the creative industry. Each role has been a dynamic endeavor, providing me with an opportunity to develop both personally and professionally. I invite you to get in touch with me for new professional opportunities.
