Borra.

I design operational systems for people who can't afford for them to fail.

Multi-role coordination, high-stakes workflows, non-tech-savvy users under time pressure. Six verticals. Two companies. All shipped and deployed at scale.

Born and raised in Hyderabad. Studied Human-Centered Design at Srishti and learned the rest through shipping real things.

I design enterprise systems by day and argue with FIFA's AI by night. I follow football and cricket with the same obsessive attention I bring to interaction flows — which is either a strength or a problem, depending on who you ask.

I keep going back to cities I've already been to. There's something about knowing a place well enough to have a favourite corner in it.

Be curious,
not judgemental.

I think about this in research — when a user does something I didn't expect. In design reviews — when a PM pushes back on something I was certain about. And when I'm wrong, which happens.

The non-obvious answer usually only shows up after you've stopped assuming you already know what you're looking at. That's where the actual design work starts.
