About me.

Hi, I’m Deepshika, originally from India, a Parsons graduate who spent nine years in New York fashion before walking away to take a two year sabbatical across 12 countries. What started as a leap of faith became the most defining chapter of my life.

Now based in Berlin, I share stories about life abroad, identity, style and the honest, beautiful chaos of starting over. I’m currently developing Unpack with Dee, a conversation show exploring who we are, who we’re becoming and the moments that shape us.
