I am an Illustrator and Graphic Designer in Brooklyn, New York. I was born in Calcutta, India and studied Electrical Engineering in college. After working for a decade as an Engineer as well as an Analyst/Programmer in Information Technology, with a not so secret passion for Architecture and Interior Design, I changed careers to find a job that was "more creative" and fulfilling. I went back to school in New York City to study and subsequently work as a graphic designer. Currently, I am pursuing Illustration full time out of my studio in Bushwick, Brooklyn.

Throughout his professional career, Clabots has worked as a designer, a creative director, a university professor, and as a serial entrepreneur, having started and run a series of design-related businesses.

I'm a creative producer and writer who has worked with artists and brand all over the world. From Chobani, adidas, The North Face, Stella Artois, to Absolut Vodka, Audi and Apple. I am currently VP Creative Production at Chobani, where I am shaping the in-house agency model of the future. On my free time, I write poetry and film scripts (currently working on a script about my families immigration story and escape from a civil war). My work has been recognized at award shows such as Cannes, D&AD, One Show, ADC and the FWA, and featured in publications such as Fast Company, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times.
