Hi again, thanks for stopping by. I'm a product designer based in Cupertino, California. Currently, I work at Apple as a UX Researcher and I recently graduated with MSUXD from Purdue University. I have previously worked as a product designer with Ford Motor Company, OnBoard Meetings, and Purdue University. Previously, I have practiced as a licensed architect in India post completing my undergraduate degree in architecture.

My research while at Purdue University revolved around exploring cognitive and visual accessibility of user interfaces. I worked on building interactive prototypes and user testing for an LLM-powered learner-sourcing platform tailored for programming students. Prior to this, I collaborated with the DE4M lab to explore emerging research trends in developing digital and assistive technologies for accessible applications.
