Hey!

I design products backed by research to help enterprises ship intuitive and powerful experiences to their users.

Currently part of the Culture Science team at Google connecting fellow Googlers with each other and with the leadership team.

Previously, designed at Adobe's Document Intelligence Lab, simplifying machine learning models for users to create accessible PDFs.

Prior to that, I tackled complex problem spaces around data and visualization for PayPal and Stardog.

PRODUCT DESIGNER

REIMAGINING FLEET MANAGEMENT AND DISPATCH

Working in a rapidly growing startup means adapting to new requirements, new customer needs along with industry standards. At Maven, I work closely with the Chief Product Officer, Product Managers, Engineering Managers, Engineers, and of course, our customers to reimagine fleet management systems.

As a Product Designer, I help in designing experiences for Drivers, Dispatchers, and Planners that improve their productivity. This work is under NDA and unfortunately, I am unable to show my best work at Maven, But, I am glad to talk about my experience, product design decisions, and trade-offs that I had to make to get the product to the market first.
