## About

```text
At UnifyApps, I built a unified Sales Agent Platform that replaced fragmented manual processes and serves 50+ sales agents for a client. I also enabled end users to configure complex actions and triggers in apps built with a no-code app builder.

At DevRev, I designed a centralised role management system that reduced admin onboarding time by ~40% and shipped to 1,000+ enterprise users. I also designed Stage Customisation, helping unblock ~$2M in deals, and the Teams feature, which reduced customer churn by 13%.

At Affinity Global, I designed two 0-to-1 mobile experiences for the VEVE marketplace and built a design system for its mobile and desktop apps. At Shoptimize, I revamped mobile checkout flows for clients’ e-commerce websites, driving an estimated 20–30% uplift in mobile conversion rates.

Earlier, at StudioPOD, I led the design of a road intersection and created a masterplan for nearly 3 kilometres of pedestrian street connectors. I work best on complex, early-stage problems where the path forward isn’t obvious, staying hands-on from the first idea to the final pixel.
