"Don't be
afraid of the
new Arenas"
UX Designer and Design Strategist, shaped at the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati and built through 8+ years of delivering user-centered products adopted by 100M+ global users.
I’ve spent the first part of my career designing interfaces. The next part, designing systems.
And today, I’m focused on designing intelligence into products.
My work sits at the intersection of UX design, product strategy, and AI-enabled experiences - where clarity, speed, and user understanding come together to drive meaningful outcomes.
Currently, as a passion project, I’m building Palette - an AI-powered UX co-pilot that helps teams move from ambiguity to structured product thinking. It enables generation and iteration of personas, user journeys, task flows, and UI concepts, bringing design thinking, generative AI, and system design into a single workflow.
Through this, I’ve been deeply hands-on with:
-
Designing AI-assisted user experiences (GenAI, LLM-driven interfaces)
-
Creating human-in-the-loop systems for better decision-making
-
Structuring prompt design and interaction models for AI products
-
Building scalable design systems that integrate AI outputs into product workflows
This shift has strengthened my ability to think beyond screens - into end-to-end product ecosystems powered by AI.
Alongside this, I co-built Soulkadi Canteen in Himachal with my mother - a small Maharashtrian kitchen that evolved into a community space. It grounded my understanding of real-world user behavior, service design, and operations - reinforcing that great design is not just digital, it’s experiential.
Professionally, I bring:
-
Strong expertise in user research, interaction design, information architecture, and usability testing
-
Experience leading 0→1 and 1→N product design initiatives
-
Proven ability to run design thinking workshops, align cross-functional teams, and influence product strategy
-
A systems-thinking approach to solving complex problems across SaaS, enterprise, cloud, and consumer products
-
Deep focus on accessibility, inclusive design, and global user needs
-
I’ve worked closely with product, engineering, and business stakeholders to ship solutions that are not only intuitive but also measurable in impact - improving adoption, engagement, and user satisfaction.
My design philosophy is simple:
clarity over complexity, systems over silos, and empathy at every layer.
As a leader, I focus on identifying core problems, simplifying ambiguity, and enabling teams to do their best work. I value collaboration, critical thinking, and structured decision-making - especially in fast-moving environments.
Design, for me, has always been a stairway of opportunities. 🚀
Not just to build products, but to shape how people interact with technology.
I try to stay rooted in empathy, adaptability, and goodwill - constantly exploring new tools, technologies, and perspectives.
A thought that continues to guide me:
“Don’t be afraid of new arenas.”
It’s what drives me to embrace AI, rethink traditional UX boundaries, and build for the future.
Beyond work, I’m a traveler, builder, cook, and storyteller - someone who enjoys creating things that bring people closer to ideas, to products, and to themselves.
At its core, my journey is still about:
happiness, wilderness, and balance. ❤️
