Get to know me

I'm a product designer who builds for complexity. For the past two years at Intuit, I've been designing the internal platforms that Intuit's data and AI teams rely on to do their work — tools for governing sensitive data access, instrumenting product behavior, and discovering datasets across a catalog of millions of assets. The problems are technically demanding, the users are expert-level, and the stakes are real: the workflows I design touch 360,000+ data requests every month.

Before Intuit, I led design for Archy — a dental practice management SaaS startup — from the first whiteboard session through shipping a product that helped the company raise $10M in seed funding. I designed across 13 product domains in 14 months as the only designer on the project. It's where I learned to work fast, work independently, and design for domains where the complexity is real and the users have no patience for bad UX.

I came to product design by way of architecture. I spent five years training as an architect in Mumbai — learning to think at the scale of systems, to read spatial relationships, to design for human movement through complex environments. That foundation shows up in how I approach information architecture, workflow design, and the moments where visual clarity has to carry cognitive load. I completed my MS in Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Maryland before joining Intuit.
