Hi, I am Akshatha

a product designer who makes pixels work harder so users don’t have to.

a product designer who makes pixels work harder so users don’t have to.

Something you won’t find on my resume: I was known as the 'Snap Solver' at my previous company for quickly tackling challenges. As the youngest intern at Tally Education, I had the chance to present and defend my designs to executives, which led to an award. Also, I’m a huge F1 fan – you can always count on me to catch the latest race!

As a UX designer, I'm completing a Master's in Human-Computer Interaction at IU Bloomington, whilst simultaneously earning a Bachelor's in Interaction Design. I find joy in transforming complex problems into straightforward, intuitive designs. My experience spans from developing mental health platforms, to crafting CRM systems, and even to creating award-winning educational technology tools. I apply a blend of imagination, understanding, and meticulous research to ensure every project I tackle is enjoyable and makes a substantial impact.
