**I design complex products and make them simple to use.** When I’m not designing, I’m probably reading, running, watching movies, or thinking about One Piece for absolutely no reason.

My story

## From engineering to design

I started out studying engineering, thinking I’d probably end up coding for a living. Turns out, coding wasn’t really my thing.

But I’ve always been the one asking why. Why a button sits where it does, why something works the way it does, why a decision got made. So I went looking for something else, found design, and joined a design bootcamp in Bangalore. A few freelance projects later, I got my shot at Taabi as an intern.

## Two years at Taabi

Two years in, I’ve had the chance to work on 2 zero-to-one products, a bunch of redesigns, dashboards, and all the messy bits that come with building products from scratch.

## What I enjoy and work with

What I enjoy most about design is making sense of messy problems, understanding how things work, figuring out where they break, and turning all that complexity into something people can actually use.

I work across product design, design systems, 0→1 products, enterprise UX, user research and rapid prototyping, in Figma and FigJam.
