TESTIMONIALS

I've worked with passionate, talented and kind teams across the world and each one has made me a more thoughtful designer.

Faisal Ahmed

R&D Leader, BAE Systems

"What sets Bhavya apart is her professionalism, kindness, and respect for others. She fosters collaboration across diverse disciplines, which makes her not only a talented designer but also a trusted partner in complex product development efforts."

Meghna Chaudhury

Co-founder, WeUnlearn

"Bhavya's leadership style is ethical empathy. She pushed back to us founders, stressing the well-being of key beneficiaries. The ability to stand up to a personal value system is something I admire, value, and learn from."

Donald Butts

Head of Emerging Technologies, Nokia

"As AI-native and immersive devices continue to emerge, Bhavya’s design foresight will be increasingly valuable. I’m confident she would excel in roles focused on immersive AI products or strategy-led HMI innovation. I highly recommend Bhavya and would welcome the opportunity to work with her again on future projects at the intersection of design, AI, and human–machine interaction."

Jason Hong

Professor Emeritus, Carnegie Mellon University

"Bhavya was an amazing member of our team, in terms of designing a range of user interfaces for WeAudit, doing multiple rounds of user testing, ideating on new product ideas, and just generally being a joy to work with."

Angeline Moura

Head of Design, Nilfisk

"Bhavya's work is characterized by a high level of thoroughness and rigor. She consistently applies structured thinking and shows a solid understanding of the broader vision, as well as the processes required for Nilfisk to succeed."

ABOUT ME

I enjoy making art in all forms.

Making art without any set constraints helps me balance the rigor I bring to my work.
