Stories. Systems. Strategy.
With two master's degrees and time spent across fast-paced AI startups as well as large enterprise teams, I know how design decisions land differently depending on the room. I design digital products that are intuitive on day one and built to scale beyond it.
"I had the pleasure of having Aakanksha in two of my graduate classes while she was pursuing her second Master's degree at Parsons School of Design. Aakanksha demonstrated incredible enthusiasm and intelligence in every project she undertook. Her research skills are excellent, and she is a great communicator and team leader."
"Aakanksha possesses an innate ability to think outside the box and her creative insights brought a unique and invaluable dimension to our projects here at Harman. She consistently demonstrated a strong work ethic, excellent attention to detail, and the ability to collaborate effectively across time zones."
"During her year-long Capstone project at Parsons, she leveraged her access to multiple instructors to propel her team's design research. Aakanksha demonstrated strong planning skills, engaged with external stakeholders, and effectively utilized industry networks. Her work reflects consistent hard work, reflective and rigorous thinking, using each task as a provocation to refine her graduation project."
"Aakanksha's curiosity to go beyond the obvious and depth of thinking made her stand out in class. Her honest and hardworking nature, along with her maturity in handling complex briefs, consistently enabled her to surpass other students."
"What truly distinguishes Aakanksha is her ability to see the world from a fresh and innovative angle, which is reflected in her design process. Her curiosity, combined with her openness to explore new ideas, makes her an asset to any creative community. Her commitment and unique perspective consistently impressed me."
