At BoomPop, creating incredible events and experiences is what we do each and every day, and none of that would be possible without our amazing team hard at work behind the scenes. Today, we're proud to shine the spotlight on BoomPop product designer Arunima Walimbe, who was recognized by Adobe for excellence in design as the Adobe Digital Edge awards winner in the Art and Design category and product prize winner for Firefly. This incredibly prestigious and highly competitive awards program draws entries from 100+ countries worldwide. It celebrates the outstanding work of students who push the boundaries of design. As an award winner, Arunima was invited to be part of the Adobe Max conference in Miami, which brings together over 10,000 creatives, designers, and artists from across the world. Her award-winning project called “soul” is a smart wallpaper that reimagines the future of smart home interface through personalization and technology.
