A Little More About Me
Hello there!
I'm Pratilipi, a Bangalore-based software engineer with an eye for simplicity and a mind for strategy - who specializes in learning new and better ways to build inclusive products and exceptional digital experiences for a variety of users. I've had the privilege of working at a huge corporation, a start-up, and numerous personal projects.
Once I came across human-centered design, I knew that I wanted to be part of actively building products and solutions for the delight and satisfaction it gives to the users. I enjoy being the bridge between developing and designing, and feel right at home as a design minded and detail-oriented developer.
I consider work as an ongoing learning process, and I'm always seeking opportunities that encourage growth. Ultimately, my primary goal is to develop something beautiful with people who bring out the best in me.
When I'm not in front of a computer screen, I'm probably sketching, reading, petting dogs, or crossing off another item on my bucket list.
