Hi, I'm Pratiksha. I downloaded 6 food delivery apps.
No, I wasn't hungry — I was studying their checkout flows.
Found 3 problems before I even got to checkout.

I design for change.

The Skillset.

Process
Research before design. Always.
User interviews, usability testing, affinity mapping, journey mapping — I validate the problem before I touch a frame.

Background
I speak developer.
CS degree + frontend experience means I design with implementation in mind and hand off without surprises.

70%
of my time goes into research — because finding the right problem is half the solution.
Design Approach
End-to-end, not just the happy path.
Information architecture, interaction design, design systems, edge cases, error states — I think in flows, not screens.
Wireframing User Flows IA Design Systems Prototyping
Emerging Tech
Designing for AI — not just with it.
AI-assisted design, prompt engineering, LLM-integrated experiences, conversational UI — I understand how to build products where AI is the feature, not the afterthought.

Craft
Accessibility is non-negotiable.
WCAG compliance, contrast ratios, keyboard navigation — built in from day one, not bolted on at the end.
