A UX Designer with a background in Journalism
Get in touch
Hello there,
I'm Arpita, a dreamer, lifelong learner and career changer who's passionate about solving problems through thoughtful design.
I started my career as a news reporter in a state news channel in India. I worked as a news reporter for almost 6 years. Most of the time I worked in politics, education, and day-to-day events. Though my best works were mostly special stories which I used to do to serve people. I like to talk to people, to know their stories, their problems and find a way to solve them. I feel if I can make a difference even in one person's life that would be my win — that mission still drives me today.
I am a curious person and my curiosity brought me to the world of user experience and design.Now, I find the same purpose in understanding users, identifying pain points, and creating intuitive, human-centered solutions. I thrive in collaborative, supportive teams where design is valued and experimentation is encouraged.
When I'm not designing, you'll find me gardening, taking photos, reading, or staying updated on design trends.
Let's connect — I'd love to hear your story too.
