Designing for action, delighting with details. I’m Avyay, a humanist researcher and detail oriented designer, working at the intersection of engagement & behaviour change. My background in design enables me to leverage a variety of methods and theories to develop innovative & novel solutions that drive lasting change. I am currently a student at Indiana University Bloomington pursuing an MS in Human Computer Interaction Design.

Welcome to my world
Pleased to meet you This is one handsome photo I have of myself. I’m a Masters student at IUB, with 2 years of of experience as a UX Designer at Reliance Jio and a couple of degrees from IIT Bombay.
