About

Hey there, I'm Darshan, a UX Designer at Incedo Inc. I recently graduated with a masters in Human-Computer Interaction at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis. I was born and brought up in India, and have been around computers for as long as I can remember. Previously, I worked as a Content Programmer at Ansrsource India Pvt Ltd. I worked on the design and development of an intelligent assessment and learning system for K-12 students. At Ansrsource, I was responsible for programming algorithmic mathematical and statistical content while making sure that the content designed is up to the WCAG AA standard. I come from an engineering background studying Information Science and Engineering which helps me bring in an engineer's or a developer's perspective into things. I also bring with me an eye for detail and a knack for problem-solving in design. I'm always looking towards designing interfaces that are both visually and functionally pleasing for the end-users. Apart from being a UX Designer, I love binge-watching TV shows, movies, and anime. I'm also an avid gamer currently playing on PS5 and PC. I'm also loving taking pictures of places I visit and the things that I find on my journey there.
