Product Designer

I joined Crib when it was just an idea and helped turn it into a working product. From defining user flows to shaping the visual identity, I designed almost everything, from the app interface to pitch decks and even the company logo. Working this closely with the founders taught me what it really takes to build a product from zero, fast decisions, clear communication, and constant iteration.

Product Designer

At CodeChef, I’ve been rethinking how learners experience the platform. I redesigned the website, dashboard, and onboarding flow, making it easier for new users to start learning and for returning ones to stay engaged. These changes helped improve sign-ups, retention, and overall usability.
Lately, I’ve been exploring AI in education, designing an AI Math tutor that makes learning feel more fun, adaptive, and personal, like a story that teaches you as you play.

UX/UI Designer

At Oodles, I worked with the design team on projects for clients like Hubilo, Medvisit, and Tux Wallet. My focus was on making dashboards and workflows easier to use while keeping them visually clean. It was the place where I learned how real-world constraints, timelines, developers, clients, shape design decisions.

UX/UI Designer

Here I worked on internal dashboards and websites, simplifying complex information into clear layouts. It might sound small, but it taught me the value of usability and how even minor changes can make daily tasks smoother for users.

UX/UI Designer

This was my first step into design. I designed This.rent, a peer-to-peer rental app, learning everything from scratch, research, wireframes, prototyping. It was a crash course in how ideas become real products, and it confirmed that design was where I belonged.

I’m a passionate and goal driven product designer with a solid foundation in UX/UI and two years of hands-on experience. Originally from India, I now call the picturesque city of Edinburgh, Scotland, my home. My design journey is driven by a deep curiosity & passion for translating my observations of the world into compelling and intuitive user experiences. Inspired by Shakespeare’s notion that "all the world’s a stage," I strive to play my role as a product designer by turning ideas into seamless designs through meticulous user research, wireframing, and prototyping.

Outside of design, I like working out at the gym and immersing myself in the beauty of books. I’m eager to further hone my skills and contribute to more innovative projects in this dynamic field.

I began my design journey by learning from YouTube and online courses, practicing, experimenting, and figuring things out on my own. That curiosity led to my first real project, designing a peer-to-peer rental app. Since then, I’ve worked across proptech, edtech, fintech, and crypto, designing clarity out of chaos, crafting products that simply make sense.

From helping to build Crib (a proptech startup) from the scratch, to studying design at the University of Edinburgh, to now building an AI Math Tutor at CodeChef that makes learning playful, adaptive, and human, each step has deepened my belief that design sits at the intersection of strategy, empathy, and impact.


Outside of work, I love exploring startups, reading, working out, and chasing new adventures, always curious, always learning.
