A little about me

My decision to choose the field of design has come from my curious nature to observe and question anything and everything around me. My latest work is focussed on making voice assistants inclusive of older adults; trying to understand challenges, constraints and benefits of using conversational assistants by the elderly.

Can there be an effective way to help bike riders navigate without being distracted by their mobile phone? Do we think about left-handed people while designing interactions? With the evolving area of Artificial Intelligence, will people lose the art of natural conversation and care about machines more than humans? These are a few questions I ponder on while observing life around me.

Apart from this, I like to engage myself in outdoor activities and have represented my college in Lawn Tennis. Since my childhood I’ve had a passion for dance, it transports me to a realm where I’m immersed in the intense emotions of the art form. I love traveling and interacting with people from varied cultures. Research-based conferences are my favorite means to meet like-minded people. I also provide mentorship and share my UX experience through Rookieup and Interaction Design Foundation's Get A UX Job Bootcamp
