Growing up, I was a problem solver and my approach to the solutions were quite different from the rest of the lot. Before the solution, I used to think about the people who are going to use that, whether it will make their life easier or not (apart from solving the intended problem) Graduating as Mechanical Engineer & working in that industry for 3 years, made me quite proficient in all the sciences to solve problems. Knowledge of material & manufacturing processes equipped me to physically make those solutions. But the missing link was 'Solving for People' which I was still doing by instinct and not able to execute successfully most of the time. That's when I decided to pursue a master degree in Design, learned & enjoyed applying human-centered design principles, processes & tools. While I am growing in my design career from Industrial Design to UX & Service Design, I find myself even more curious to understand people, their needs, behavior, and ways to elicit positive impacts on businesses, organizations, and society at large through design solutions.
