Hi, I'm Sim (short for Smridhi),

I’m a multidisciplinary product designer with
4+ years of experience shaping research-driven digital experiences.
I specialize in consumer products where emotional stakes are high and systems that reduce cognitive load, build trust, and meet people where they are.

My journey (so far) has been: Fine Art → Visual Design → User Experience Design
