Product Designer

About

Industrial Designer with a Bachelor's degree in Industrial Design from MIT Academy of Engineering (MITAOE), Pune. I am passionate about creating products and systems that balance user needs, engineering feasibility, business objectives, and aesthetic appeal. My approach combines design thinking, research, ergonomics, and technical problem-solving to develop meaningful and practical solutions. My experience includes product design, industrial equipment design, UX/UI design, assistive devices, and concept development. During my internship with Kirloskar Oil Engines, I worked on the redesign of a 15 kVA generator set, focusing on usability, maintenance accessibility, ergonomics, and overall user experience in industrial environments. Through various academic and industry projects, I have gained hands-on experience in design research, ideation, sketching, CAD modeling, rendering, prototyping, and design validation. I enjoy tackling complex challenges, translating insights into innovative solutions, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to bring ideas from concept to reality. My goal is to create impactful products that improve user experiences while remaining practical, manufacturable, and commercially viable.
