experiences
beyond the screen

I'm Akshay, a product designer with an engineering background, which means I can design the thing and then go build it. Apps, websites and VR experiences, taken from the first idea to shipped.

Professional social platform2024

Engaze

UI/UX Designer · Intern

A social platform where professionals learn, share and connect through blogs, byte-sized content and discussions. I designed a clutter-free feed, credibility-first profiles and swipe-based job matching, so time spent on the app turns into professional growth rather than mindless scrolling.

What I do

Design for screens, spaces and everything between.

Four things I do. Most projects need more than one of them.

  • Product Design

    Turning early ideas into well-defined products, from research and user flows to build-ready designs.

  • UI/UX Design

    Intuitive interfaces for web and mobile, grounded in research and validated through testing.

  • AR/VR Development

    Immersive VR experiences in Unity for Meta Quest, and real-time 3D for the web with Three.js.

  • Web & Brand Design

    Websites and brand identities that give startups a clear, confident and consistent presence.

About me

Curiosity
drives good design.

An engineer by training and a designer by choice, I work where technology and design meet.

What I am good at is bridging design, tech and business. I have worked all three sides, so I can weigh what users need against what is buildable and what the business actually wants, then go and build it.
