Driven by curiosity, crafting the "aha" moments in UX.

With a Bachelor’s in Industrial Design and a Postgraduate degree in Design Management from George Brown College, my journey into UX Design has been driven by a deep passion for technology. This combination allows me to seamlessly align business objectives with design strategies, bridging the gap between them to uncover and address market opportunities with a comprehensive approach.

Over the years, I’ve honed my expertise in Design Thinking, User Research, Visual Design, and Front-end Development. I’m proficient with design tools like Adobe Creative Suite and Figma, and possess a solid understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. My experience spans working with a diverse range of clients, from innovative startups to large-scale enterprises, all seeking transformation through design.

As a UX Designer, I prioritize understanding the user’s needs, generating insights to better comprehend the problem space, and creating impactful digital solutions that are engaging, intuitive, and provide an exceptional user experience. My design philosophy is rooted in human-centered principles, and I consistently apply this mindset in my work.

Outside of design, I’m an explorer at heart—whether biking through new parts of the city, indulging in my love for food, or immersing myself in Punjabi music. Weekends often find me at art galleries or enjoying nature. I’m always eager to discuss design in everyday life and explore new ideas and projects. Feel free to reach out for a conversation or collaboration.
