About

At MX Player, my focus is on creating seamless digital experiences that resonate with users worldwide. With over two years leading product design, I've honed my expertise in Figma, user research, and product development, ensuring each design meets user needs with intuitive ease. Previously, at Times Internet, my role expanded from managing design teams to embedding a culture of design thinking across projects. Our collective efforts have consistently resulted in user interfaces that are not only functional but also delightful, reflecting a deep understanding of user behavior and preferences.
