## About

I design digital experiences for high\-risk financial environments where user decisions directly impact trust, safety, and money\. My current focus is on fintech UX and AI\-assisted decision systems — specifically how product design can reduce fraud, prevent harmful financial behavior, and improve decision quality without creating unnecessary friction\. Recent projects include: • A UPI fraud prevention experience designed to detect and interrupt high\-risk transactions using contextual intervention flows • An AI\-powered financial assistant concept that helps users avoid impulsive or risky spending decisions through behavioral nudges and explainable AI interactions My work combines: • UX research and behavioral thinking • Interaction design for critical user flows • System\-level product thinking • AI\-assisted user guidance models I’m actively building toward roles in: • AI UX Design • Fintech Product Design • Risk &amp; Trust Experience Design Portfolio: https://lekhamerdesign\.netlify\.app/
