Nakshatra ManeB.Des UX, MIT Institute of Design

I design interfaces.
Lately, I build them too.

Product designer in Bengaluru. I've redesigned flows for a live rental marketplace, built a brand identity for an AI graphic-novel tool, and shipped client website pages.

I studied UX Design at MIT Institute of Design. I focus on visual detail and simple flows, and recently started designing in code with AI, partly to build faster and partly to find out what these tools are really good at.

Open to junior product design roles.

A little more about me

Hey! It's Nakshatra

UX/UI designer who likes visual detail, clear flows, and figuring out what AI can actually do.
Outside of design: I paint, lift weights, crochet or just explore new hobbies

Currently looking for junior UX/UI designer roles where I can learn quickly, take on real product problems, and grow through hands-on experience.
