Greetings! 👋🏻 I'm Shruti, a former IT professional turned into a Toronto-based UX Designer. My passion lies in crafting captivating user experiences that pack a meaningful punch. With a graphic design background and a knack for aesthetics, I've spearheaded several design projects, collaborating across teams to conjure up innovative digital gems that not only woo users but also fuel business growth.

My creative soul dabbled in painting, sculpture, and digital art. My journey into the world of UI & UX kicked off with an audacious decision to blend my technical wizardry with my creative flair. From that fateful moment, I dove headfirst into sharpening my UI and UX skills. Starting from the good ol' paper sketches to full-blown prototypes, I've immersed myself in every design stage. The endgame? Ensuring that the final product isn't just a treat for the eyes but is also practical and user-friendly.

What's it like working with me, you ask?
I'm your open-minded, friendly companion on this design journey. I'm all about soaking up knowledge from others and dishing out fresh perspectives. Innovation runs through my veins, and I'm always up for out-of-the-box thinking. Collaboration and teamwork are like my design superpowers.

Let's chat about my design thinking process:
Got a complex puzzle? I'm your gal. Armed with both data and intuition, I love cooking up intuitive and practical design solutions.

Step 1: Feel the user vibes through research, diving deep into their needs and pain points.
Step 2: Cue brainstorming sessions and workshops where I whip up some of the best solutions like a design magician.
Step 3: Usability testing sessions are my jam; I fine-tune user flows before the grand finale.

Tools that light up my creative playground:
You'll often find me rocking Figma, Adobe XD. For those artistic touches, I groove with Sketch, InVision, Google Forms, Illustrator, Photoshop, Webflow. Also have a basic knowledge about HTML/CSS.

Life philosophies I groove to:

Be your biggest believer, ‘cause no one else will be.
Serve up 200%, and let serendipity take the reins.
Comparisons? Sure, but your journey is yours, not theirs.
Time's a miracle worker, remember that.
Surround yourself with greatness, and you'll shine.
Buck societal norms; you're here to dazzle, not fit in.

My chill-out moves:
Wanderlust? Check. I've got an itch for travel.
Woods? Yep, I'm camping there, soaking in nature’s masterpiece.
Artsy? Absolutely, paintings light up my world.
Active? Badminton and volleyball keep my spirits high.
And that's a wrap!
