Hey there!

I'm Vinay Narasimhamurthy

As a designer I am passionate about guiding product teams along their UX runway to help them realise their experience vision. I work closely with Product Management and responsible for the UX strategy. I wear multiple hats and move across UX disciplines to launch projects from inception to production without ignoring accessibility requirements.

As a design influencer, I act as a catalyst and help product teams to first focus on the user's problems and then work towards solutions to address them.

I am an effective team player with excellent communication skills and have worked in waterfall and agile product development environments.
