ABOUT ME
Uday Palanivel
My career began at the intersection of finance and hospitality, where I developed a deep appreciation for precision, service excellence, and strategic thinking. As my journey progressed, I naturally wove technology into this foundation – harnessing digital tools to streamline operations, elevate guest experiences, and enable smarter, data-driven decisions. At the same time, creativity and innovation have remained constant threads in my life. From early explorations in photography, drawing, and painting to a lifelong passion for travel and cultural discovery, I’ve always been inspired by the world’s diversity and beauty. This unique blend of art, hospitality, and technology shapes how I work and create: telling visual stories that resonate, solving problems with both logic and imagination, and building experiences that connect people in meaningful ways. Through it all, I strive to spark curiosity, foster connection, and inspire a deeper appreciation for the world around us.
