S.Sahil Tayal

Independent work / New Delhi, India / 2026

Sahil
Tayal.

Writer. Independent researcher. Creative technologist. Perfumer.

I work across organisational behaviour, human development, education, culture and the creative possibilities of technology and scent. Different disciplines, connected by a persistent curiosity about how people think, feel and act.

A profile, not a pedestal. The work speaks more than the adjectives.

01 / Education

Commerce at Sri Venkateswara College, University of Delhi; MBA in Human Resource Development from JBIMS, Mumbai (2021).

02 / Professional background

Experience spanning EY, HR-related consulting, a government setting and everyday family retail.

03 / Current practice

Independent essays, research-informed explorations, interactive web experiences and experimental perfumery.

The thread is
the human.

An organisation is a set of decisions made by people. Education is more than a forecast of future jobs. A fragrance can hold an idea about feeling. A browser can turn an abstract question into something you experience.

The mediums change. The questions about agency, dignity, identity and possibility keep returning.

There is a longer trail of essays, prototypes, independent projects and creative experiments. It stays out of the way until you want it. Then the whole archive opens.
