I'm Shikha, a researcher and designer working end-to-end, from research to shipped product. I lead with questions, identify what's actually broken and design solutions that are intuitive and usable.

 

I think good design is equal parts logic, empathy, and grit. I like getting into the details, looking at a problem from every angle, and figuring out what actually makes sense for the people using it.​

​

Growing up across different states in India taught me to adapt quickly and connect with people from diverse backgrounds. That perspective shapes how I approach people with empathy, openness, and a constant effort to understand their needs.

Outside work, I find joy in capturing objects and portraits that tell a story. You’ll also find me hiking, practicing yoga, or learning piano (slowly, but consistently). I tend to get deeply invested in things I care about and I’ve come to see that as a strength.
