About

I live by this : "If you have a chance, make something nice" I am a writer turned designer. When I am not designing, I am hosting Airbnb experience at Zen Space (hosting zen tea ceremony sessions). My design philosophy is simple : Good Design is the one that “Meets User Expectations” and Great Design is the one that “Exceeds User Expectations” and I believe one can exceed user expectations if they deeply care about the user. That being said, I have a knack for User Research and Writing. I also believe that “A thing of beauty is joy Forever”.

Design Team Member

Jun 2018Aug 2018 · 2 mos · New Delhi Area, India

  • Project: Disha – Creating Employment and Entrepreneurship Opportunities for Women in India
  • The most crucial learning here for me was the field trip at “Jhajjar” where I did user research, interviews of the women in the village area, in order to get a better understanding of the problem and what possible solutions we can try in this case.
  • Here, I made field visit to the site where I got to execute full UX methodology with real users, and learned importance of team work in the design team. Here, I also did the website design and front-end development, brochure, poster so on and so forth designs.
  • (Due to confidential nature of the project, at the moment I can’t share work sample here.)
