About Me
Some quick facts about me
Hi, I’m Sugandha, a product designer specialising in enterprise SaaS, dev, and AI tools. I’ve been designing for almost 4 years now, and I genuinely love what I do. Impact, creativity, and problem solving are the reasons why I became a designer in the first place.
My journey into product design has been anything but linear. It started in the most unexpected way!
A few detours before design…
- 1
I was always the art kid – sketching, mandalas, pottery painting, rangoli. But ended up pursuing a much ‘safer’ option in my undergrad i.e. business management.
- 2
In college, I stayed close to the impact space. As part of EnactusHRC, I worked on sustainable menstrual care and generated employment for 20+ women and 15L+ in revenue.

Post graduation, I started working at a marketing agency, but realised pretty early that it just didn’t float my boat.

So I quit. I began working as an artist – taking commissions and teaching art and finally had room to explore design. I taught myself everything and eventually cracked a product design job!
Where I am today…
That job turned into a career I’m proud of. Four years in, I’ve gone from teaching myself the basics to shaping real products and the way I work now looks nothing like where I started.
With AI reshaping everything, I believe in myself as a designer more than ever. The workflows have changed. I remember how boxed-in our careers used to feel, capped by what we could create on a canvas. But now, whatever we can imagine, we can actually build. That makes us the most powerful generation of designers to ever exist, and I can’t wait to see what lies ahead for us!
