I'm Sayli — and I believe design is a conversation.

Okay then. Who are you?

Woah Woah, existential question right off. Alright. By trade, Product Designer.

By heart?

I am someone who finds joy in art, recharges in nature, and values curiousity and hardwork.

This is me in Smoky Mountains!

How did you get into product design?

My first real exposure to UX came in my Bachelors of Computer Engineering, through ACM meetups and alumni-led seminars, where I realised technology was all about people and how they interact.

I took a leap and joined a school management startup called Korangle!

Yep! I had to wear multiple hats! UX, Visual and Content Design, User Research! I learned that:

Good design is less about perfect UI, more about listening deeply, navigating constraints, and building trust.

I fell in love immediately with the messiness of design!

Where did you go from there?

To study Human Computer Interaction at Georgia Tech!

What are you upto now?

JOB HUNTING!

If you know of a Product or UX Design role where I’d be a great fit, I’d love to hear!

I am working in the FinTech Space!

1. Georgia Tech’s Financial Services Innovation Lab — designing AI-powered tools for banking and lending.

2. Co-authoring a Gerontechnology paper on Financial Capacity Challenges for Older adults with Vision impairments, in collab with Elena Remillard at TechSAge.

When I’m not doing all that?

I’m probably sketching, crocheting, running, or quietly people-watching at a park.
