An engineer turned full-time UX designer, with over 9 years of core interaction design experience. I have designed solutions for diverse fields ranging from IoT-connected wearables to transformation projects involving commerce platforms.
A voracious reader, I enjoy discovering facets of human psychology and applying those learnings to the design experiences I create. Innovation and breaking barriers excite me, I have three patents to date on healthcare and virtual reality.
I also give talks and teach in design colleges as a visiting faculty, it helps me share industry knowledge with budding designers and also stay updated on the latest trends in the design field.
