Profile

Hi, I'm Priya!

I'm a UX designer with bases in New York City, Philadelphia, and Seattle. I have a passion for creating impactful user experiences.

Prior to my journey into UX, I worked in pharmaceuticals specializing in CAR T-Cell Therapy where much of my day-to-day work was spent impacting patient lives. It was during my time there that I discovered my passion for using technology to make meaningful impact.

 

I often found myself dreaming of the solutions I could create for people outside of just the world of cell therapy. My interest in transitioning into UX was fueled by a life-long desire to empathize, understand, and connect with individuals of different backgrounds. 

In my spare time I enjoy practicing yoga, painting oil paintings, food-blogging, and sampling kombucha and dark chocolate.
