Journey of 12+ Years

As a manager of the Design and User Experience (DX) team at D. E. Shaw India, I have worked in transforming our design methods from tech team driven to a user-centric approach. Over the last 9.5 years, we have delivered projects that have become an integral part of our FinTech business. Before joining Shaw, I co-founded a startup called PocketChef. I began my career with Blue Yonder and worked for 2.5+ years as a UX designer.
