Thank you for stopping by.
I'm a Graduate in Information Science at Cornell University with a focus on Human Computer Interaction and User Experience. I have an Undergraduate degree in Computer Science & Engineering from Anna University.
A mobile and web interface/interaction enthusiast, I love to read, listen and think about problems, and figuring out how design and technology can help solve them. When I am not talking about data driven design, UX psychology or interaction patterns, you can find me singing or dancing (not so gracefully).
I currently work at Asurion as a UX Designer. At Asurion, I work on user journey maps, product thinking, wireframing and low/hi-fi prototyping and UX Research for AT&T. Previously, I worked at Khosla Labs, a Venture Capital Firm and Startup Incubator, as an Associate Product Manager. Prior to that I worked at RedBlackTree as a Technology Associate.
When people ask me for fun facts about myself, I have 3 in my back pocket –
• I rearrange the furniture and switch the layout of things in my apartment every 6 months. If I don't move things around every so often, I feel like I have a creative block.
• Growing up I loved the book 'The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn'. My brother, cousin sister and I built a raft to run away from home during the summer of 1999. The small river near our grandparents place had dried up during the summer, and our plans of escape effectively ruined much to our chagrin.
• I have travelled across 15 cities in India over 15 days on an entrepreneurial scholarship. We (me + 200 people from all over the world) practically lived (ate, slept, showered) on a train for those 15 days. It was one of the most challenging, wonderful, humbling and eye-opening experience I have ever undergone.
