Resume

  • B.S. Electrical Engineering, 2008-12

  • M.S. Software Engineering (HCI), 2012-14

    My explorations at Stanford were driven by my deep interest in perception, graphics & human centered design. It is here that I also got the opportunity to organize the biggest Energy Week as part of the Stanford Energy Club.

  • Strategy Design, 2012-13

    Stanford d.School

    I was a design consultant for various projects at the d.School, where I helped companies like SAP, Novartis, Nordstorm and SF MOMA with different design challenges. This was also a time where I facilitated several design thinking workshops.

    Integrated Retail Labs

    I was chosen to be a part of the Technology Leadership Program, which is an elite cohort of individuals empowered to be the champions of innovation initiatives & entrepreneurial thinking at the Integrated Retail Labs. The program had executive sponsorship from the CIO's office, and enabled me to manage the highest priority initiatives for the company, from inception to execution.

  • User eXperience Designer, Sep-Dec 2013

    SAP Labs

    I helped redesign the healthcare experience usign the Google Glass. Designing for Glass or any Augmented reality platform is very different from designing for web or mobile. It was at this time that I applied the UX best practices I learned at the Stanford design school. As a result, a Google Glass application was developed and was later presented at the SAP Tech Ed Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada.

  • Management Science & Engineering, 2014-16

    Stanford University

    Being a Product Manager in cross-functional product teams taught me a lot about the fundamentals of management and thought leadership. This experience further sparked my interest, as a result I decided to pursue a graduate degree in Management Science and Engineering. My focus areas were product strategy, organizational behavior & decision making.

  • Product Manager, 2014-16

    Ericsson

    During my two year stay at the global telecommunications company, I spent 3 months in Singapore deploying Telecom Cloud Solutions to customers in the Region Southeast Asia and Oceania (RASO). I also led the Lean & Agile Development charter at Ericsson’s R&D site in Hungary.
    During this time I also helped organize 3 global hackathons focussed on Internet of Things (IoT) and future Media Technologies. These events resulted in more than 50 innovative prototypes to help Ericsson shapr the future of networked society.

  • Sr. Product Manager, 2016-Present

    NVIDIA Corporation

    I'm extremely excited to join NVIDIA on their journey to create jaw-dropping products that delight consumers.

User-centered Design

Placing user at the center of the product development process helps create delightful products, where beauty meets utility and form becomes functional. I can help teams build products that are as beautiful as they are functional.

Rapid Prototyping

Rapid prototyping is the first step in creating exceptional products. I am experienced in using a breadth of hardware/software prototyping tools and can help teams quickly iterate through new forms, features, and interactions for constant feedback cycles.

Product Strategy

I have diverse role experience (PM, Engineer and Designer) and can lead multicultural, cross-functional teams. I have also lead workshops on product strategy, design thinking and agile development processes.

While focused on my art, I still maintain occasional freelance clients for design consulting, photography & film direction.
