she/her/hers
I chose a career in user experience design because I strongly believe simple, seamless and intentional designs can make a huge impact on helping people easily achieve their goals. Additionally, the day-to-day on the job combines many of my strengths and passions such as logical problem solving, art/design, technology, collaboration, organization, and understanding people.
Along with being a designer, I am a volunteer teacher at a local Indian Sunday school, a traveler, and a photographer. The Shishu Bharati project is a learning management app inspired by my experience as an Indian language teacher. You can check out my photography on Instagram - @aarohisphotos!

"Aarohi has a strong work ethic, demonstrating the willingness to work hard on assignments and tasks assigned to her. Her ability to breakdown complex problems spaces into accomplishable tasks has shown me that she can adapt and succeed in a professional environment where ambiguity might normally hamper progress. I have found Aarohi to be a very focused worker with a high attention to details. As a mentor, I have been very impressed with her capacity to not only learn new techniques and best practices but apply them to the tasks she performed on a day-to-day basis."
"Aarohi is a talented and dedicated individual who stands-out for her ability to learn and work collaboratively with her peers. Her participation in team meetings has shown me that she always respects others' opinions even when they differ from her own."
