Product Designer | Design System Manager
<aside> ✏️ Journey at a Glance
My career began as a software engineer collaborating with teams from various disciplines creating the HRMS product called PeopleHum. This experience opened up my strengths in critical thinking and problem-solving that eventually led me to work in experience design at Jio, one of the leading Asian telecommunications companies. There I championed the implementation of a new design system. I further developed my skills in designing systems when I joined CURE Finance, a Germany-based fintech startup and built its medical financial product from scratch. Last, as BatterySmart’s lead of design, an EV company, I was focused on making products accessible to people with low levels of literacy.
Thus influenced by Dreyfuss’ work as well as Engelbart and Kahneman, I went on to study human-centred interaction for Master’s degree in the University of Limerick Ireland. While there, my research centred on creating Accessible Mental Health Services for College Students through innovative design addressing current social issues.
