Hi, I'm Dhwani. I painted for thirteen years before I designed products.
After more than a decade of storytelling through painting, I found a new outlet in digital design, using research, strategy, and visual storytelling to turn messy problems into intuitive, human-centered experiences.
Today I work across research, interaction design, information architecture, and AI-assisted product design, especially on products where complexity needs to feel simple.
