Creative, accountable, and deeply empathetic—these are the values that define me as a designer. Amongst my colleagues, I’m known for being a reliable and collaborative team member who actively listens, iterates with intent, and helps turn good ideas into impactful solutions.
With a Master’s degree from the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad, and over two years of UX design experience across industries like finance, public mobility, and manufacturing, I’ve designed digital and physical experiences that balance usability with empathy.
My portfolio includes — design of a Loan Management System at Piramal Finance, Accessible design for special needs (award-winning ergonomic bamboo crutches at India Design 2024), Clean public transport solutions for Indore city (System design for Arrival UK), and Web-based software design (currently at Autodesk).
Prior to my design career, I worked as a Design & Development Engineer at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles for 3+ years, where I built a strong foundation in product lifecycle management, production systems, and cross-functional collaboration.
Proficient in tools such as Figma, AI tools (ChatGPT, Midjourney, V0 and so on), Adobe Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, Indesign Premier pro and more), CAD software like — Rhino, Fusion 360, and KeyShot, I’m excited to contribute my skills to mission-driven projects that create meaningful impact.
