UX, Code & Product strategy
With a Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science from Don Bosco Institute of Technology, I have built a diverse career in technology and design. As a Co-Founder of CaseChat, I developed an AI-driven platform to enhance clinical education, leading product strategy and design in a high-ambiguity environment. My role as an Entrepreneur in Residence at Antler further honed my entrepreneurial skills. Previously, as a Product Designer, I improved user experiences for companies like MSIG, 1Finance, and Razorpay. At Avenue Supermarts Ltd - DMart, I led UX for warehouse applications, significantly reducing dispatch times and digitizing processes. My experience at Solutionario involved designing VR apps for enterprise marketing. My career reflects a blend of product management, UX design, and development, driven by a passion for creating impactful digital solutions.
