About

I am a self-taught senior product designer with over 8+ years of experience in the UI/UX design field. While my bachelors is in Mechanical Engineering, my unwavering passion for creative fields led me to pursue a career in design. Through self-guided learning and hands-on experience, I have honed my skills and developed a strong foundation in design principles, user experience, and visual aesthetics. Early on in my career, I had the opportunity to work in startups. Being part of small teams, I gained invaluable exposure to the entire product development lifecycle. From ideation and concept development to prototyping and final implementation, I had the chance to handle projects from end to end. This hands-on involvement allowed me to understand the intricate details and challenges involved in creating successful products. At BYJU'S, I became part of bigger teams, collaborating closely with talented individuals from diverse backgrounds. As a senior product designer, I took on a leadership role, overseeing a team of 4 designers and spearheading multiple projects. This experience not only sharpened my design skills but also taught me how to effectively communicate and guide a team towards achieving shared goals.
