Experience Designer | Architecture & HCI Specialist
With a robust background in architecture and human-computer interaction, I have cultivated a diverse skill set that bridges design and technology. I am currently pursuing a degree in Human Computer Interaction at California College of the Arts, building on my Bachelor of Architecture from Aayojan School of Architecture and Design and Savitribai Phule Pune University. My professional journey includes roles such as Experience Designer at Oya Protocol, where I enhanced product usability and user engagement, and a Social Impact Partner with CNN, focusing on increasing voter literacy among youth. I have also contributed to city-wide campaigns with the CCA Center for Art and Public Life and managed events at California College of the Arts. My architectural expertise was honed at GRIT: environmental design + research studio, where I led projects that combined aesthetic appeal with functional design for diverse communities.
