Hey there!
Hi, I’m Gayathri Babu, a UX and Product Designer with 3+ years of experience, currently pursuing my Master’s in Human Computer Interaction at California College of the Arts in San Francisco.
I enjoy working through ambiguity and turning complex problems into clear, usable experiences. I naturally think in systems and like connecting research insights, interaction design, and visual craft to design products that feel intentional and intuitive.
With a background in visual and communication design, I bring a strong sense of aesthetics while staying grounded in user needs and business goals. I am especially drawn to early stage and evolving products, where design helps shape direction, not just interfaces.
"As a UX & Product Designer I specialize in user research, systems thinking, and complex workflows. I turn messy problems into calm, usable, business-ready solutions."
