A lot of my work sits at the intersection of design strategy and emerging tech, from GenAI product thinking to careful privacy and ethics tradeoffs. If you’re curious about any of that, I’d be glad to explore it together.

About

I currently work at Viven AI as a member of technical staff with previous experiences at Google and Augmental Technologies designing for wearables and voice-forward interactions. I completed my Master of Design from University of California Berkeley focused on design strategy and HCI. My thesis focused on developing a Conversational AI platform powered by GenAI, featuring dynamic interactive capabilities such as Q&A, summarization, note-taking, and cross-referencing, significantly improving the user experience and adhering to ethical and privacy standards in AI. In my ⁠past life, I worked as a Senior Physical Chip Design Engineer with NXP Semiconductors on 16 and 5 nm finFET technology where I gained experience in technical ownership, leadership, xfn collaboration.
