Me Beyond Work

I grew up in a family of artists in Mumbai, which is probably why design found me more than I found it. Architecture was my first career. Six years of drafting, coordinating, and watching buildings go up floor by floor taught me how much invisible thinking goes into every visible outcome.

Outside of work, I travel when I can (India mostly, for now), photograph everything that sits still long enough, and stay active. I ran my first half marathon last year. These aren’t design hobbies exactly, but they sharpen the same muscles: noticing details, finishing what you start, and enjoying the long versions of things.

Product designer for B2B SaaS and financial workflows.

I'm a product designer focused on B2B SaaS and financial workflows. I work across research, interaction design, design systems, and prototyping in Figma, with AI tools integrated into how I explore and iterate. What draws me to this work is designing for clarity and trust: the products I want to work on ask users to make decisions that matter, and good design there is about making the right thing obvious, not just making it look good. My path into design isn't the usual one. Before UX, I spent 6 years as a practicing architect in Mumbai, which taught me to think in systems and design within real constraints. I moved into product design through a year at CIBC, a Master's in UX at Thomas Jefferson University, and recent work at Varmodel AI and Inverse Paradox.
