I’m a heated public speaker advocating design thinking, importance of design in education and of user experience design at various conferences including IEEE WIELS, The Goa Project and other college events. I’m a sensitive graphic designer having work published in reference books like The Infographic. I’ve been at the bottom and the top of human centred design in India, working at companies like Google, INK, Teach For India, Memesys Labs and D-Labs at the Indian School of business. Today, I’m persevering in the Indian Higher Education System to inculcate the value of design to add quality to what and how we learn. Nodes is here to enable 100 million students to solve ground-level problems through human centred innovations
