About

As a Product Designer at Zeus Learning, Omkar is deeply passionate about weaving behavior design and persuasive techniques into meaningful digital experiences. The intersection of psychology, behavioral economics, and design thinking fascinates him, opening a world of insights that often remain underexplored. He believes that impactful products go beyond static tools, they evolve into actions, habits, even verbs. When a product becomes part of someone’s story, that is when it truly succeeds. In the edtech space, Omkar is especially committed to designing products that are inclusive and accessible for all learners, regardless of their abilities, backgrounds, or circumstances. He strongly believes that education should be a universal right, not a privilege, a belief that fuels his approach to user experience. From ensuring WCAG compliance to supporting diverse learning styles and cognitive needs, he strives to create platforms that empower every learner to engage, understand, and grow with confidence.
