Designing to make daily experiences feel better.

Hi, I'm Raghu! I'm a product designer exploring how intentional design interventions can make products and complex systems clearer and more human-centered.

I'm currently designing experiences within public infrastructure, including food systems, airport security, and public transportation.

About

I often work at the intersection of design, psychology, and technology, aiming to create positive and meaningful change. I enjoy untangling complex systems with many stakeholders, translating them into stories that feel grounded and humane.

Right now, I'm especially interested in the strategies to reduce stress and anxiety in airport experiences, as well as the ways that we can improve food access, resiliency, and nutrition in city-scale food systems.
