About Arnab Majumdar

I work at the intersection of fashion, technology, and sustainability. My career started in factories and retail, launching private labels and new stores for one of India’s largest retailers, and has evolved into building accessible, high-performing digital experiences for fashion and luxury brands. Today, I’m an Executive MBA candidate at NYU Stern, specializing in Strategy, Sustainable Business & Innovation, while founding and running Lotus Mahal, a creative and consulting studio. Through Lotus Mahal, I help organizations—from universities to restaurants to Pride festivals—turn strategy into measurable, tech-enabled outcomes, including institutional strategic planning frameworks, accessible website relaunches, and large-scale fashion programming. Previously, I led front-end and accessibility initiatives for Bonobos (Walmart & EXPR), where I shipped e-commerce features that drove double-digit conversion gains and championed WCAG-compliant, inclusive design. Before that, at ShopRunner (FedEx Dataworks), I built core software frameworks that power large-scale retail technology. Earlier in my career, I served as a department chair, assistant professor, and instructor across multiple universities, weaving sustainability and technology into 100% of the fashion curriculum and helping double enrollments in fashion programs. My journey started with size-standardization projects for Indian consumers and has grown into a mission: to use technology to make fashion and consumer goods more sustainable, more inclusive, and more human. Focus areas: Sustainable fashion & consumer goods, digital strategy, e-commerce, accessibility (WCAG), front-end engineering, educational program-building, and brand development. My Gallup CliftonStrengths are Input, Achiever, Ideation, Futuristic, Learner
