Hi! I'm Mrunmai 👋

I’m a UX Designer and Researcher focused on creating user-centric solutions that blend creativity with a bit of technical flair. With a background in computer engineering and human-computer interaction, I mix data-driven insights with empathy to solve design challenges.


My friends call me Shazam because I can instantly recognize any song — and I bring that same quick-thinking to breaking down complex problems into simple, user-friendly solutions. It’s this knack for clarity that drives my passion for making innovation accessible to everyone.
