With 5+ years of experience I craft people-centric solutions in Architecture and Urban Infrastructure planning. My goal? To create vibrant, resilient, eco - conscious spaces where people and nature can thrive together.
About me
About me
I started my career as an Jr. Architect quickly grew into the role of Lead Architect in two years. Delivered around 15+ projects, designing more than 1,00,000 sq. ft. of residential, commercial, and hospitality spaces in last five years, Working closely with HNI clients and teams where I translated their visions into tangible reality.
My desire to connect on a larger scale pulled me toward Urban Infrastructure and policy. I’m naturally drawn to cities and their stories as an Architect. I’m the person who can find common ground with anyone, a skill that has been the foundation of my career.
As a WASH and Climate specialist , I now use that same approach engaging with everyone from Vulnerable community to government leaders. to understand the real - world gaps in SDG and design solutions that truly impact people. Digital Fluency, Connecting with people to create lasting impact and Social Media engagement are some of my other strong suites.

Professional Impressions
Yaamini made significant contributions to the Institutional Assessment chapter of the Blue-Green Infrastructure Master Plan, working closely with CMDA and multiple institutions. As Member Secretary of CMDA, I was pleased to guide her during this tenure. At an early stage in her career, she has already demonstrated the orientation and competence to contribute meaningfully to urban and developmental planning. Her aproach towards Public Health of vulnerable communities reflected not only sound technical skills in urban planning and policy analysis but also a deep sense of social commitment.

Being a colleague alongside Yaamini, and had the opportunity to work with her in three projects where she stood out as one of the most talented, hardworking, and focused individuals in our cohort. Her determination, sharp problem-solving skills, and ability to approach tasks with both creativity and precision make her an exceptional professional. I am confident she will excel in any role she takes on and make a meaningful impact wherever she works.

It’s been such a pleasure working with Yaamini, who joined ATB as a Junior Designer and quickly grew into a Senior role thanks to her sharp mind, dedication, and incredible work ethic. From the start, she impressed us with how quickly she picked things up and how confidently she handled site work always bold, assertive, and unafraid to take on challenges head-on. Her natural leadership skills and ability to guide others with ease made her a very valuable part of the team. Beyond her professional strengths, what truly stood out was the warmth and positivity she brought into every project. She became a true part of the ATB family, never shying away from hard work and doing it all with a smile and an undying spirit.

Yaamini is a determined person combined with strong research and analytical skills, evident in her unconventional thesis on Public Health and WASH linkages in Ahmedabad slums, where she combined rigorous ground-level data collection, stakeholder engagement, and advanced statistical analysis to deliver meaningful insights. In her role as Program Ambassador, she not only represented the program at national and international forums but also fostered industry connections, facilitated workshops, and confidently interacted with dignitaries with utmost professionalism. Her dedication, digital fluency, smart outreach skills, and initiative driven approach make her a standout candidate for roles requiring leadership, research, and policy insight.

I like to blend the divinity of Bharatanatyam and fierce martial arts. Besides work, I enjoy Art, making tasty food and Yoga. I let the Urbanist in me to have thrill by exploring new cities and culture. Always up for a new expedition :)
