Profile
The synergy of art, technology, and creativity in human-centered design truly captivates me. I’ve been graced with a journey enriched by education in both India and the USA.
Beginning in India, I delved into architecture, gradually realizing the pivotal role of users in design. This revelation fueled my curiosity, prompting my move to the USA. At Pratt Institute, I embraced Industrial Design, delving into these concepts once more, now with a focus on products and technology. My journey progressed further as I honed my skills in User Experience and Interface Design at Columbia University.
Most recently, I was focused on crafting engaging and effective user experiences across a variety of products and services as a Senior User Expereince Designer and Researcher at BOSCH. Over nearly a decade, I’ve had a natural evolution of my career where I refined my aesthetic sense, became proficient in inclusive design, and embraced diverse challenges. From the entrepreneurial vigor of the USA to high-pressure problem-solving in rapidly growing India and the German precision of Bosch, each phase shaped valuable learning and molded my growth.
Beyond design, my passions include music, spicy cuisine, sports, solving Rubik’s cubes, meticulous organization, and humor. Driven by an unceasing desire for growth, my aim is to create designs that are not just functional, but also enjoyable, sustainable and inclusive.
Currently based in Helsinki, I’m exploring opportunities across the Nordics drawn to the effortless fusion of human-centered innovation and planet-friendly ethos, a blend that truly inspires me. I’m driven to advance my path in useful and empathic design, tending to both the planet and fellow humans.Â
