Hello!
As a Passionate Design Leader, I bring a rich history of creativity and technical acumen, honed through years of experience in the creative and internet industries. My expertise lies at the intersection of technology and design, where I blend these elements to drive innovation and impact.
I am proficient in User Experience, Advertising, Branding & Identity, User Interface Design, and Creative Direction. My hands-on approach has led to the successful delivery of production-ready solutions in complex areas such as escalation prediction, agent assistance tools, search optimization, chatbots, and recommendation systems. My methodology is rooted in design thinking and problem-solving, ensuring each solution is both creative and effective.
My journey is one of continuous learning, driven by a desire to understand and grow from the experiences of those I design for. I thrive in dynamic environments, embracing a bit of chaos as a catalyst for growth and innovation. I firmly believe in the philosophy of using the right tools for the right problems, prioritizing practical results over theoretical debates. My commitment goes beyond conventional boundaries, always willing to go the extra mile to achieve tangible results.
I approach every challenge with a cool, confident attitude, ready to make a lasting impact. 😎
My Story
From a very young age, I’ve been deeply drawn to art and design. It began with my aunt, a ceramicist and potter, whose work shaped the way I look at form, material, and intent. Watching her create taught me that design isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s about meaning, purpose, and how things come together to serve people. That curiosity led me to look beyond how things look and into how and why they work.
I pursued this passion formally with a Bachelor of Design from NIFT, Kannur, where four transformative years helped me build a strong foundation in design thinking, craft, and problem-solving. I was awarded the Best Graduation Project Award (2015), a milestone that reinforced my belief in thoughtful, user-centric design.
Over the years, I’ve worked across diverse domains — social media, marketing, and product design, collaborating with designers, engineers, and product leaders to build experiences that balance user needs, business goals, and technical constraints. This breadth of experience shaped my ability to think both creatively and systemically, and to zoom seamlessly between details and the bigger picture.
Today, I work at SearchUnify, where I operate at the intersection of UX, product strategy, and AI-powered systems. I currently lead both platform-level experience strategy and feature-level execution, working as a Product Manager and UX Lead across multiple AI agents. My work includes unifying complex AI workflows, defining information architecture, driving adoption, and ensuring that design quality scales alongside fast-moving products.
A key focus of my recent work has been designing coherent, human-centric experiences for AI — making powerful systems understandable, transparent, and trustworthy. I work closely with product, engineering, QA, security, and go-to-market teams to align long-term vision with real-world delivery, while mentoring designers and helping teams work with clarity and ownership.
At the core of my approach are three principles:
clear problem framing, ease of use, and sustainable design at scale.
Outside of work, I enjoy exploring typography and illustration, and you’ll often find me unwinding with my ukulele.

I have worked with many professionals throughout my journey, but Disha was a unique one to work. Her work ethics are pristine, and she is easily adjustable to a given situation. Her ability to go out of his way to help others has made her stand out.
As a leader, Disha earns my highest recommendation.
