Product Designer, storyteller, and eternal learner
I believe great design happens at the intersection of empathy, curiosity, and a lot of iteration.

More About Me

Hi, I’m Sakshi, being an engineer (B.Tech IT), I’ve truly believe, "an engineer is not just an engineer". Even though I’m a UI/UX designer, I’m truly a multi-skill factory disguised as one human. I’ve worked across graphic design, brand design, social media marketing, content creation, and everything in between!
I moved to the U.S. for the first time with two suitcases, three backup chargers, and absolutely zero idea how cold “cold” actually is here. Since then, I’ve mastered the art of layering, navigating giant grocery stores, and pretending I understand every American idiom on the first try.
I genuinely enjoy presenting, and public speaking never scared me, probably because I treat every presentation like a mini performance (minus the spotlight and fog machine… for now). And somewhere along the way, I became the unofficial “career and freelancing advisor” for lots students, I’ve mentored many, who simply needed someone to hype them up and show them where to start.
When I’m not designing, I’m usually dancing, because yes - movement is my love language. And somewhere between all that, I also write poems and short pieces that are mostly inspired by people, places, and the chaos of everyday life.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned through all my creative adventures, it’s this:
Good Product is just good storytelling - told with pixels, words, and a little personality.
Beyond Design: Creativity, Expression & Impact
A look into the poetry, writing, performance, and community work that shape who I am beyond my design practice.

Bharatanatyam Graduate (Madhyama Purna) • Classical dance has taught me rhythm, storytelling, and the discipline of practice.
