About

Hello! I’m Nikhil 👋 I am a design and code enthusiast based in Bangalore. My passion for design and creation started at the age of 16, when I began to teach myself how to code to bring my ideas to life. I became interested in design because of its nature—the process of creating something from nothing, form from chaos, and function from disarray. With a unique blend of design and programming skills, I've launched successful personal products and held various design roles in companies like Google, Razorpay, Flipkart, BrowserStack, and Directi.
