Nandini Shankar

Biography

Hi! Ideally, I would consider myself a multimedia storyteller, through writing, illustration and theatre. I love all things nature and specialise in environmentally conscious work. My portfolio includes illustrating signboards and educational content, board game design, and musicals. I’m currently working out of Pune, India, as a freelance illustrator and designer, but my dream is to have my musical, ‘Driftwoods’ produced.

I wrote Driftwoods during my Masters at Berklee NYC, specialising in Writing and Design for Musical Theatre (Class of 2023) alongside my Music collaborator, Rowan Blackwood. However, after moving back to India, Sama Thakore has taken on the Music Production.
