About

When you give me a design brief, I open my diary, not Figma. Before pixels, I sit with the problem, sketch how people actually feel, and only then move to screens. Over the past couple of years, I've worked across B2B, B2C, and SaaS, building experiences that feel considered, not just fast. This mindset began at DRDO DYSL AI, where I worked closely with the Director and collaborated with scientists to design D LORD, a face verification research platform, simplifying complex data into clear, usable flows for non expert users. I carried this forward at thinkO AI, where I work directly with the founder to build a personalized AI news platform across web and mobile for a teen and Gen Z audience. Alongside this, I take on freelance projects across travel platforms, e commerce, and packaging. Each domain deepens my understanding of how people build trust and interact with products. During my bachelors, I also explored real time IoT projects focused on women's safety and awareness, working with microcontrollers like ESP32, Raspberry Pi, and NVIDIA Jetson Nano, blending hardware with user centered design. I completed the Google UX Design Specialization and am currently part of the Designare cohort, learning to design for scalable businesses and build faster with AI. And when I am not designing, you will probably find me doing art, singing, or overthinking. That overthinking has its upside, I am proud to be a co author of the book "Heavy Feather."
