Art in my veins, design in my heart: Growing up in India, surrounded by Mom's artistic magic, design wasn't just a hobby, it was destiny. It whispered in the vibrant colours of Holi, sang in the intricate patterns of mehndi, and danced in the stories woven on temple walls. I devoured every brushstroke, every curve, every shade, soaking it all in like a parched land in monsoon.

My formal education didn't follow the textbook path, but my hunger for design was a self-fueled fire. I climbed the ladder rung by rung, each project a stepping stone. From freelance gigs with big names to diverse brand experiences, I built my design muscles, one late night after another. Seven years of self-mentoring, hustling, and relentless learning – it wasn't always easy, but the spark in my eyes never dimmed.

In this journey, I discovered the synergy of design and technology. Mastering HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, I realized that a designer isn't just an artist but also a builder of interactive, user-centric experiences. My passion found its true calling in UI/UX design, where functionality meets aesthetic brilliance. I delved deep into the world of user experience – understanding user behaviors, mapping intuitive interfaces, and ensuring seamless interactions that make users feel understood. Whether it’s wireframing, prototyping, or conducting usability testing, I revel in the art of creating experiences that don't just look good but feel right.

UX, for me, is more than just design; it's a narrative – a conversation between the user and the product. It’s about empathy, problem-solving, and crafting journeys that resonate. I've learned to put the user at the center of everything, blending creativity with analytics to ensure every pixel serves a purpose.  After chasing this dream through every pothole and monsoon, I stand here, ready for the next chapter. There’s more art to create, more stories to tell, more experiences to craft – and I’m just getting started.
