Shaila's journey from an closet artist to becoming a design executive

Shaila lives with her parents and four siblings in Kengeri, Bengaluru. Her father works as a painter and mother is a homemaker. With five children to provide for, her father barely managed to make ends meet.

Shaila was a talented artist. Looking at her potential, Pillango managed to convince her parent to enroll Shaila in the Graphic and Print Design Course, the cost of which was borne by Pillango.

Shaila cleared her screening process and joined the course. The course nurtured her talent and gave her the skill required to get better. She worked very hard at her subjects even with lack of resources at home.

Shaila got selected to do an internship in Navachetana Advertising. During the course of this internship she worked closely with their in house creative team. Her seniors were appreciative of her typography work.

This experience added wings to her career. She completed her course with flying colors.
