Every once in a while, you come across a person who exudes the qualities that you would expect of a professional in the UX field, and I felt that right away with Utkarsh. I’ve witnessed him apply his ever-expanding knowledge of design to deliver meaningful and refined solutions and, in the process, help those around him succeed as well.

Story time...
My values
People matter most.
The most important ingredient in life and business are people – including users, colleagues, and everyone else.
Design is not art.
Design should be objective and backed by research and data. Creativity in design is about problem-solving.
Hell yeah, or no.
If I’m not saying ‘Hell Yeah!’ to something, then I say no. I don’t believe in doing half-hearted work.
4 yrs experience in UX,
7 in the design industry.
