Hello! I am Neha, a Designer living and working in Seattle, US. 

I apply my design research background to build user experiences. 

​

Through my work, I stand for voices – the voice of the user, of women and minorities. Now is the time to question systems, traditions, beliefs and advocate through design.

 

Learn more about me or simply skip to my work. I am available for work in August. Write to me here.

Design Research

Coming from India, my design philosophy is heavily socially-driven. A sociological lens helps me to identify real needs of real  ̶u̶s̶e̶r̶s̶  people. 

I believe 'Women's rights = Human rights'.
