What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, allowing me to grow as a designer while contributing to impactful projects.

I am a passionate UI/UX designer with a solid foundation in Electrical and Electronics Engineering. My journey began at Annamalai University, where I honed my skills in design thinking, usability testing, and user research. Over the years, I have developed a keen eye for visual design and collaboration, which has allowed me to create engaging user experiences.

My professional experience includes roles as a Software Developer and DevOps Engineer, where I successfully launched a blogging platform that increased user engagement by 30% and optimized cloud resource utilization, saving significant costs. I have also worked on various projects, including designing high-fidelity clones of popular applications like Spotify and Netflix, showcasing my ability to adhere to design systems and create seamless user interactions.
