as a person in design

I'm a systems thinker who got pulled into design through code. 7 years in, mostly B2B, the kind of work where the problem isn't obvious and you have to dig.

I'm fascinated by how people think, and I love the rush of solving things. I have great experience taking vague problems and turning them into usable systems.

Over the years, I've worked on 0→1 products, scaled mature platforms, led design initiatives and teams, and worked briefly on design systems.

And yes, I like AI too, okay.

as a person

I make silly lil art and trust cats way too easily.


Currently working on a children's book and making small clay friends.


I DIY things, or hoard things to DIY later. I like travelling, but I'd love it if I could teleport. You know, cliche artist things.

BrowserStack logo

BrowserStack / Senior Product Designer

~1.5 years | Dec 2024 — April 2026

Led a 0→1 product (Testing Toolkit) — a Chrome extension that's now BrowserStack's primary in-browser testing surface. Owned strategy, helped build the XS design system, and did design QA over 9 months. Also ran customer analysis on Live (the mothership product), mapping usage patterns across enterprise accounts to redirect roadmap priorities. Got sharper at making decisions from data instead of opinions.

~3 years | Feb 2022 — Dec 2024

Led a team of designers (JioMart for ~2 years) and worked as an IC on other projects too. Owned client relationships, mentored juniors who got promoted to seniors, and balanced agency timelines against design quality. Designed Yubi's Originator Self-Serve platform (1.5 months, end-to-end) and led JioMart's Conversion Charter revamp (7+ months). Learned how to lead without micromanaging.

IBM / Software Engineer

1 year | Jul 2018 — Jul 2019

Started in engineering before moving to design a year in. Still informs how I work with engineers — I know what “we can't build that” actually means.

how i work

with PMs

I go through task briefs in detail before I start asking questions. I want to know what I'm working with first. There's usually more behind a brief than the first ask, so I push to see the data myself and find the why behind it. I collaborate on ideas, go back and forth on the path forward, and use historical data to make my case when I need to.

with engineering

Before I change an idea, I want to understand why it isn't possible to build. I respect their constraints and work with them, not against them.

what i fight for

If users told us something, that signal wins until something stronger shows up. I push for reusable patterns over one-off solutions. I want feedback fast so I don't drift in the wrong direction. And I do my best work with autonomy and ownership.

day-to-day

I keep communication open, I follow through, and I'm AI-forward in how I work. I'm kind to the people around me, I love a fun environment where I can learn, and I work without ego.
