Hey there!

I'm currently based in San Francisco, working at a Series A startup focused on Generative AI governance and compliance. I hold Master's Degree in Human Computer Interaction from Rochester Institute of Technology, New York and building my career at the intersection of design, science, and technology. Over the years, I’ve made significant user experience impact by collaborating with several global organizations as a full-time employee, through internship and through academic research.

I believe, along with understanding the user and business context, great interaction design also requires a deep understanding of the machine/medium, its capabilities, limitations, and how far we can push its boundaries. This mindset has shaped my approach across projects involving wide range of interaction, from visual and auditory interfaces to haptic feedback, across platforms like web, mobile, wearables, AR, VR, and XR devices.

Whether I'm solving a business problem or experimenting with technology, I thrive to balance affordance, precision and scalability to everything I work on.

When I'm not geeking out over design thinking, I love driving and you'll find me outdoors doing adventure and adrenaline rush activities.

Feel free to reach out if you'd like to chat about projects, collaborations, or anything else I can help with.

Thanks for your time and curiosity, cheers!
