Background
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.
Before moving to Finland, I worked as a Lead Designer and Researcher at BOSCH, where I focused on crafting engaging and effective user experiences across a range of products and services. 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.
Currently based in Helsinki, I’m collaborating on cross-disciplinary product initiatives spanning education, tech, health systems, web and mobile applications, user research, spatial design and brand identity across the Nordics. I’m inspired by this region’s effortless fusion of human-centered innovation and a strong planet-conscious ethos.
