Mehul Sharma — Head of Design
Senior designer at Microsoft with 8+ years of experience in designing cohesive products across technology, retail, education, finance, events, and entertainment. Currently designing experiences for the Microsoft Azure Stack Suite. Prior to working for Microsoft, I was a design lead at Walmart in their enterprise UX team. Previously, I have launched 2 startups and worked for 3 of the biggest conglomerates in India. I enjoy hearing multiple perspectives and identifying opportunities by uncovering unmet customer needs. My experience with startups has enabled me to develop big-picture thinking; while not losing sight of the details. I have come to realize that I actually enjoy ambiguity. As a broad T-shaped individual I try to find analogs from various fields and I am always on the lookout to try something new.
