About

UXer | Thinker | Proud Geek. I love solving complex problems. Observing and analyzing the intricate details of what surrounds me is exciting and it is my main source of inspiration. The result is a natural, curious and careful process - a synthesis of what is absorbed every day incorporated into my work. This method provides me with a good dose of experimentation by using new techniques and media, but also rediscovering traditional techniques, without dismissing those that are most unusual and forgotten, designing ever-changing projects. Worked in industries such as Telecom VAS (with Sprint, AT&T, Verizon, Telefonica & T-mobile), Hollywood entertainment media (with celebrities such as Chris Jericho, Monte Pittman, Rampage Jackson, T-Boz, Richard Hatch and many others.), Real Estate (Indian Market with leading real estate portal, Magicbricks), Retail, Banking, hospitality (NCR Corporation). Passion Projects include FM India (No. 1 radio app on play store), Pixtory, Mofi, TableArt, Upfeatured etc.

Promoted

Dec 2023 – Present · 2 yrs 3 mos

As a Product Design Lead at McKinsey, I'm dedicated to elevate the user experience across our global platforms, merging strategic insight with design excellence. I've streamlined decision-making processes, leading to more intuitive and effective products.
1. Spearheaded the development of cutting-edge analytics tools that have revolutionized our approach to real-time user insights, facilitating smarter, data-driven strategic decisions that propel the business forward.
2. Orchestrated a worldwide feedback system that captures and synthesizes user data across diverse regions, leading to a unified design strategy that resonates with our global audience and enhances user satisfaction.
3. Championed a culture of collaboration, steering joint initiatives between internal teams and external partners. My leadership in integrating comprehensive data analysis into our design processes has resulted in optimized product outcomes and streamlined workflows.
4. Launched state-of-the-art research tools that have redefined our team's efficiency. These tools have drastically cut down on time-to-insight, enabling us to anticipate and meet user needs swiftly and effectively.
Through these initiatives, I am not only redefining the standards of user-centric design but also reinforcing McKinsey's legacy as a beacon of innovation and excellence.
