👋  I'M PIYUSH

I am a User Experience & Visual Designer with 6 years of involvement in various industries such as Aviation, Entertainment, Finance and Education.

I'm obsessed with constantly learning, curious about solving complex problems, and being an outlier who is not only a pixel pusher but also explores ways to create purposeful and impactful designs.

Currently working as UI/UX Designer for top private aviation company.

Process
What is my approach?
Imagine a product that not only serves as a tool but also a best friend to the user?
I think every designer has the same approach - to find a better solution to any problem they are trying to solve. Personally, I believe in providing solutions that focus on usability and user experience while maintaining authenticity and creativity. I also strongly believe that collaboration, communication, research and passion are crucial to achieve the best results.
Understand

A good product starts with a thorough understanding of the problem. Communicating with users and getting their feedback helps create comprehensive models that are aligned with what users want.

Simplify

When features start to pile up, it's time to trim the superfluous. I focus on encapsulating the core of the product while ensuring its serviceability and principles.

Create

Spick-and-span design and easy-to-use interface. I strive to make them friendly so that users have no trouble acquiring new information.

UX Designer at Flexjet

At Flexjet, a world-renowned luxury private aviation company, I have applied my expertise to a diverse range of digital products, including mobile apps, web designs, and backend operations. In addition, I have been instrumental in creating never-before-seen marketing materials that showcase the opulence and refinement of our brand. Currently, I am leading a collaborative effort to develop a comprehensive design system that will ensure consistency and continuity across all of our sister brands. By collaborating closely with developers and stakeholders, I am creating an elegant and user-friendly system that enhances our brand identity and elevates the user experience. My passion for user centric design, coupled with my ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams, has enabled me to deliver innovative solutions that exceed business objectives and delight our users.

Due to the nature of my work, market competition, and NDA agreements, I am currently unable to publicly display any of my projects. However, I am more than happy to discuss my design process and experience in detail and provide a private portfolio presentation during a call or interview.

About

Know my story

My interest in technology and how it intersects with human behavior has basically brought me to design. No matter what I'm working on, I try to consider how and what I'm helping to design, and always investigate how it benefits the user.

Working in design industry has encouraged me to solve digital problems that improve user experience and productivity. I have gained clarity on how a product lifecycle and customer's journey can be influenced by a clear and concise visual experience.I am constantly trying to learn new and more meaningful ways to solve problems that can help me transform my ideas into a real and engaging experience. I strongly believe that a designer should have a great patience to listen, empathize and iterate storytelling along with good craft skills to produce an impactful design.

When I'm not designing or doing something creative, I try to find creativity with my camera and capture moments that inspire me. Otherwise, I burn off my invisible fat, hiking or playing outdoor sports.
