Hello, I’m Neha!
A Product Designer, human-centered creative, and a passionate advocate for using technology to create meaningful change.
My design journey began in middle school when I started customizing the HTML/CSS code of my personal blog. It wasn’t long before I discovered a keen eye for the finer details—in the pixels that shape the interactions humans have with digital interfaces.
Now, I bring clarity to visual experiences, designing interfaces and interactions that inform diverse user needs and create impact for people across ecosystems, communities, and businesses.
