## About

```text
At SmartTask.io, I own end-to-end product design as the sole Product Designer for SmartTask V2. My redesign across web, mobile and marketing platforms increased user engagement by 64%.

I drive UX research and product strategy for 500+ active users, and designed the mobile experience from the ground up. I also built and maintain a design system of 80+ reusable components, reducing repetitive design work and accelerating UI iterations by approximately 30%.

At Microsoft India, I built and maintained an enterprise design system supporting key organizational OKR initiatives, and redesigned complex legacy systems to streamline workflows. At Ally.io, I designed product integrations, Pendo user guides and OKR check-in modules.

At Zepel.io, I designed and scaled foundational UI components and guidelines for core product modules. Earlier, as a UI/UX Designer (Intern) at Facilio, I designed web application screens and responsive user flows alongside senior designers and product managers.
