About

I’m Anika, a UX Designer who believes the best ideas start in messy notebooks, not clean Figma files. I don’t just design screens; I design narratives. My background isn't linear, I've gone from winning hackathons to leading editorial design at Avant Magazine. But that's the point. This mix of strategy and storytelling is my superpower in UX. My approach is simple: geek out on the research, blend the hard data with emotional insights, and sketch until the solution clicks. I’m obsessed with the 'why' behind every user interaction, not just the 'how'. Currently, I'm at MIT Institute of Design, exploring how motion design can make interfaces feel less like tools and more like human conversations. What I bring to the table: ➳ Research-Driven Strategy: I dig deep to find the real user problem. ➳ Editorial & Narrative Flair: I make sure the design reads as good as it looks. ➳ No-Ego Collaboration: I'm here to build the best product, not be the smartest person in the room. Let’s connect if you’re looking for someone who brings design thinking, narrative flair, and hands-on execution to your next project, or just want to chat about emotional design over a cup of virtual coffee.
