About Me
Ever curious, I've always wanted to understand the "why" behind things. Growing up in Indore, India, I found creative expression through origami, and musical instruments like the drums, synthesizer, and cajon. This creative spark continued during my MBA, where I designed graphics for my campus and events.
Fast forward, design evolved from just a passion. As a motion designer at advertising agencies, my thirst for continuous learning led me to discover the exciting world of XR (Extended Reality) within advertising. That's what led me to Canada. Here, I delved into XR production at Conestoga College. While intriguing, something felt incomplete. Design solely focused on aesthetics wasn't enough. I craved a deeper purpose, a way to use design to solve problems and make technology (even XR!) truly accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
I found my calling as I graduated from UX design at Emily Carr University of Art and Design. The past year has been a whirlwind of exploration, participating in hack athons like nwHacks (University of British Columbia), FLUI (Emily Carr University), and Eunoia Jam (Simon Fraser University) which have been instrumental in honing my problem-solving skills like user research and rapid prototyping. My most recent project, SmoothRide, exemplifies this perfectly. It tackles a unique challenge: developing a solution for motion sickness on iOS devices.
Now, I'm seeking full-time opportunities in product design. I'm eager to leverage my skills to craft delightful experiences that solve real problems and positively impact people's lives.
Beyond design, you might find me behind the drum kit, whipping up a new culinary masterpiece, or exploring a podcast with a steaming cup of matcha in hand.
Lifelong Learner.
The design landscape is constantly evolving, and I'm passionate about staying ahead of the curve. I actively seek out new challenges, learn new skills, and embrace opportunities to grow as a designer.
Stronger Together.
Great design is a team effort. I thrive in collaborative environments where we learn from each other, iterate on ideas, and create impactful solutions.
Creativity with a Compass.
Passionate design starts with understanding user needs. I combine data and research with creative problem-solving to build effective and engaging user interfaces.
