About me 🤓

I’m a UX designer based in Mumbai, India with around 7 years of experience creating meaningful, human centered digital experiences. My journey started as a software engineer, where I learned to think in systems and structure, until a design thinking workshop set off a complete career pivot and made me see the beauty in messy, delightful problem solving.

My designs are shaped by both empathy and pragmatism. I understand what makes users click, but also what makes developers sigh 😮‍💨

This helps me strike that sweet balance where usability meets feasibility & translate needs to designs that feel effortless to use and easier to build.

I’m the kind of designer who sketches before I prototype, who obsesses over the tiny details that make an interface feel alive. When I’m not buried deep under Figma layers, you’ll probably find me doodling pages of something entirely unnecessary 〰️, painting 🫟 or spotting cats and
