Hi! I'm Neha (nay-ha)
Hi! I'm Neha (nay-ha)
My name means "rain" and I’m from the rainy city of Seattle 🌧️
I’m an Informatics student specializing in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) at the University of Washington. I spend my time merging art with empathy to create thoughtful user experiences.
My curiosity about people and passion for crafting simple, effective solutions drives my work as a Product Designer. I believe the best designs emerge from deep user understanding, and I'm committed to creating experiences that are effortless, intuitive, and impactful.
This past summer I interned as a UX Design Intern at Costco IT. During the school year I work as a UX Designer & Researcher at UW Libraries IT.

When I'm not doing something UX, you'll find me exploring my many creative outlets -
Fashion Design
Creating wearable pieces taught me to balance aesthetics with function—every design decision impacts how something looks, and how someone moves and feels.
Bharatanatyam
Sixteen years of Indian classical dance built my discipline and attention to detail. I learned how to guide an audience on an emotional journey through a story.
Art
Working across different mediums showed me how composition and color can direct someone's focus and shape their emotional response to a piece.
Baking
Recipe development is all about iteration—each attempt teaches you something new, whether it's a perfect rise or a complete disaster that leads to breakthrough.
