I am a Product Designer based in Bengaluru with a Master’s Degree in Human-Centered Design from Srishti Manipal.

My background in Computer Engineering (bachelors) and Electronics (junior college) equips me to work on both tangible and intangible products and services.

As part of my engineering college’s tech team, I worked on diverse projects across robotics, app development, web development, and game development. This experience helped me realize my passion for creating delightful user experiences using technology as a tool.

I have crafted design experiences for cutting-edge technology at some of India's leading research labs. My ability to blend technical expertise with a deep understanding of user needs enables me to deliver innovative and impactful design solutions.
