UX Lead @ Gooru Learning | Enhancing User Experience for EdTech

About

With a passion for the intersection of technology, society, and design, I am a UI/UX Designer at Gooru, where I craft engaging and intuitive user experiences for multiple products, such as the CADRE portal, Navigator for Teachers, and Navigator for Learners. I have a M.Sc. in Digital Society from the International Institute of Information Technology Bangalore and a background in social sciences, which enable me to understand the needs and preferences of diverse users and stakeholders. As part of a cross-functional team, I conduct extensive user research, wireframing, prototyping, and user testing, using cutting-edge design tools like Figma and Notion. I also implement UI-based enhancements and manage the company website, ensuring alignment with the brand image. I draw inspiration from the captivating storytelling and visual aesthetics of anime and crime series and channel my creative energy into delivering exceptional digital products that enhance user satisfaction and usability.
