I put humans at the center of every decision, driving iterative, data-informed design.

Putting humans at the center

With a Bachelor’s in Architecture from NIT Bhopal, I learned the art of designing physical spaces that serve people. Now, with a Master’s in Human-Computer Interaction from the University of Maryland, College Park, I bring that same human-centric approach to digital design.

Driven by Data

I understand that great design isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about understanding people. That is why I involve users at every stage of the design process, using data, research, and iteration to create solutions that meet their needs. My approach blends strategy and user insights, ensuring that every decision is intentional and data-driven.

Things I love ↓

Historical Fiction

I unwind with historical fiction - the kind that drops you into another era. I’ve devoured more WWII novels than I can count, and am drawn towards layered plots and complex characters.

Blog & Writing

In college I launched a Medium blog to document what I was learning. Writing recaps and project notes deepened my understanding and helped me connect with other designers. I share reflections, case studies, and ideas-in-progress.

My writings have been published at Rethinking the Future and Novatr (Design Journals) as well.

Making Visual Data Accessible

Search SUGAR

AI in UX. Is it necessary?

Meditation

Three years of daily(ish) meditation: better focus, lower noise.

Sketching

Colored pencils and graphite help me explore form, light, and texture before pixels.
