designing experience / reads / curates / takes photos

I'm a product designer at Snaptrude, where I design tools that architects and urban planners use to plan spaces, test zoning and massing, and generate layouts with AI. I'm based in Bengaluru.

Before Snaptrude, I worked remotely with Les Amis, a women-only members' community based in Barcelona. I redesigned their booking experience and led a rebrand, during a stretch when they expanded into six new cities, including New York, Paris and Amsterdam.

Before that, I led design at SuperShare. We raised a $6M Series A, went through a few hard pivots, and shipped consumer social products that grew to 10M unique visitors a month. As the team grew, I got to work with a mix of senior and junior designers, illustrators, animators and interns.

I have about 6 years of experience and I am a Communication Design graduate from NIFT Bengaluru. I've never stuck to just one discipline. Alongside full-time work I've done freelance projects for brands like H&M and Puma, government social awareness campaigns, and a few early-stage education and healthcare startups. That meant branding, packaging, film, social media, whatever the project needed.

Currently my focus is product: UX, Interaction and design systems. I work mostly in Figma, and I use Claude Code to build and ship working products on my own, so I can test an idea in real code instead of stopping at a prototype. When I do work with engineers, it makes the conversation easier because we're already speaking the same language.

Outside work, I'm average at a lot of hobbies. Right now that's travel photography & filmmaking.
