A note

To whoever is reading this

Whether you’re hiring, building something, or just starting out in design.

India

Hi there,

I care about design that works for the people using it and for the business paying for it. I started as an engineer, so I still think in systems and trade-offs, but the part I love most is turning a fuzzy idea into something people actually enjoy using.

If you’re building a product, hiring a design lead, or trying to break into design yourself, I’d genuinely like to hear from you. The chai is on me.
