Khushboo Chandnani

I create digital experiences that are intuitive, functional, and thoughtful. With 5+ years in UX and product design, I’ve worked on everything from surgical tools at Johnson & Johnson Medtech to newborn care apps for global healthcare providers. My goal is simple: make technology easier to use. Like in chess, I think a few steps ahead—understanding user needs, anticipating challenges, and designing solutions that just make sense. I work closely with engineers and product teams, ensuring that what we build isn’t just usable but truly helpful. I'm looking for a place where my creativity and coding skills can thrive. Let’s chat about how I can bring design, tech, and strategy together to elevate your digital experience. Let's connect! https://www.khushboochandnani.com
