Hello there! I am Dhvani Shah! I am a product designer with a passion for gaming, photography, and crocheting, currently pursuing my MS in UX at Arizona State University, graduating in May 2025. With a Bachelor's in Computer Science, I bring a solid foundation in technology and a strong focus on user-centric design. I am driven by creating experiences that are both beautiful and functional, striving for the 'oh yeah, this makes sense' moment. I follow design principles such as: • User-Centric Design: Researching user needs to create user-friendly, impactful solutions. • Data-Driven Decisions: Using user data, analytics, and testing to inform design choices for optimal UX. • Collaborative Communication: Bridging the gap between creativity and functionality with strong communication skills. • Continuous Learning: Staying current with the latest UX trends and technologies. My diverse skillset in tech and design helps translate user needs into functional, intuitive experiences, ensuring alignment throughout the design process. I love using Figma's design systems to build consistent brand identities, ensuring a smooth process for everyone. I believe in the power of transformative design to improve lives and excel in fast-paced, collaborative environments.
