/MY story

Crafting engaging digital experiences that drive results

Final year postgraduate at University of Edinburgh studying Design Informatics (Graduating in 2023). I seek knowledge and resources to gain a strong footing as a budding User Experience Designer; aiming to grow and connect with people who share my belief that there is always an efficient alternative, we just need to know where to look.

I had always shown proclivity towards art and finding creative ways to disentangle a problem, since I was a child. Now, I have realised that representation of information with a strong CS background along with deep knowledge of the cognitive aspects of organisation could help me create efficient information architectures and effective user interactive designs.

My pursuit is to challenge myself to explore and comprehend the complex ways technology interacts with people and not restrict myself to some laid out steps.
In my spare time, you can probably find me painting , reading a book or appreciating a good cup of coffee.

Bids and Beyond

June 2021 - July 2021
User experience designer
Part of a team of four UX designers for a client in the ed-tech industry. Mediated the client meetings, probing them about their design requirements and presenting our design solutions. They wanted to design a platform that ensures it promotes the goal they had of changing up the education sector, but their existing website and features were not up to par with their competitors.
 Applied design thinking and performed competitive analysis, created scenarios, and build empathy maps, followed by information architectures that acted as the source of our wireframes. Finally designed our screens using Figma and conducted a heuristic analysis to build something tangible.
Also worked on in-house graphics using Adobe Illustrator and assisted with Client proposals using the Double Diamond model to demonstrate our design method.
