A little about me

An engineer by formation & a designer by heart

What I love about my job is that I can radiate emotions through what I create

At home by the sea.
Based in the beautiful coast of Lake Ontario, NY, I’m a digital superhero trying to forge a positive impact using my superpower of great experiences and design.

I have a strong affinity for HAX Design. I’ve built design systems, gamified health platforms, and reimagined digital portals for usability and impact, always with a focus on connecting people and technology in meaningful ways. Whether I’m running UX research, launching a marketing funnel, or producing standout video content, I thrive at the intersection of strategy, creativity, and systems thinking.

I’m a creative mocktail of two amazing fields – Engineering & Design

My background in engineering massively benefits me to think analytically and solve problems critically while my passion for design drives my wild and creative imagination.

But design is just one side of my story

I have a great affinity for music as I play the piano and guitar. I also love public speaking, photography, film-making, playing soccer and weirdly enough, beatboxing. 🎤😀

My Story So Far

Let me take you on a ride-along through my journey. It all started when I was 6. Strap in!

January 2018

The folks at Forge (our department’s quarterly newsletter) caught wind of my abilities and made me their Design Lead and eventually their ‘Head of Design’

May 2019

My big break! – I made the bold decision to pursue User Experience Design as a career and earned my 1st design internship at Rillusion, a well-known design studio in Chennai

I met some of the kindest people here who nurtured me into the designer I am today.

December 2019

I bagged my 2nd internship at Spiceblue, another mainstream design studio in Chennai

Here, my role was more on the UX Research side of things on a CRM platform

January 2020

It was a pretty cool project on reverse engineering an electric vehicle to increase its load-carrying capacity and efficiency.
