Structured thinker, first — designer, second. The output is the same either way.
“I write the system before I design the screen.”
MCA, completed 2026 at K. J. Somaiya Institute of Management, Somaiya Vidyavihar University, with a 7.61 CGPI — alongside a six-month UI/UX Design internship at T&M AI and IT Solutions. Before that, a B.Com — commerce background, not a design-school one, which shows up in how I work: requirement documents and written specs before pixels.
Alongside the internship I ran a 30-day longitudinal study on emotional variation across the menstrual cycle, wrote it up as a co-authored research paper now under peer review, and designed the product from its findings. That is the part of my work I would most want to be asked about: it is the only project where I owned the research as well as the design, and it is where I learned to state what the data cannot support.
Seven builds, one pipeline
UI/UX Design Intern, T&M AI and IT Solutions — seven builds, one repeatable pipeline.
Feb – Jul 2026. Enterprise SaaS across HR-tech, EdTech and sales-intelligence, under director-set timelines, working directly with developers who had already shipped a technical-first version of each product.

Four of seven builds were HR-tech, which is why the employee lifecycle — hiring, onboarding, attendance, exit — is the domain I can talk about in most depth. Alongside them: two marketing sites, the AI Vision21 corporate site and the HireVision showcase.
Stakeholder review, not user testing
Structured review sessions with the industry mentor, product team and domain experts — 2–3 rounds per module, with feedback triaged before anything got fixed. Nielsen's ten heuristics ran as a self-evaluation checklist on every module.
Limited direct access to real end users — a genuine limitation of an internship timeline. Persona assumptions were checked against proxy feedback from domain experts and product managers instead. That gap is stated here rather than implied away.
Six things I do when I'm not designing
I don't think of these as hobbies. They're the same instinct the work runs on: prepare properly, read the situation, then commit — and keep showing up on the days it isn't fun.
