Hello, I am

Currently, I am freelancing as an independent consultant and use the Human-Centered Design approach and Behavioural Science to understand the audiences I am designing for.

In my previous roles, I have worked across private sector as well as public sector design and research projects collaborating with organizations like Google, Meta, Fractal, Final Mile Consulting, The Bill & Mellinda Gates Foundation, Gramhal, and more.

When not on field researching and designing, I practice pottery, go traveling, do yoga, and mentor design students.
