About Me | Nishi's Portfolio

Hi there,
I am Nishi

UX Designer // Illustrator // Mental Health Activist

I am a dedicated user experience designer with a passion for leveraging research and design thinking to create innovative solutions that meet the needs of users. With every project, I aim to step outside my comfort zone and grow both as a designer and as a person. Thorough research and keen observation of human behavior are my strengths, and I bring these skills to bear in all of my work. I am well-versed in the AGILE methodology and am committed to putting
user-centered design at the heart of my practice.

In addition to my work as a UX designer, I am an avid illustrator and enjoy exploring the city around me. I am passionate about meeting new people and taking social initiatives, and I am a strong advocate for mental health.
