about me

Chirag likes to  Nah, I can't do the third person act.

I like to think I bring meaningful things into existence, without confining myself to labels. I’ve been designing software for 8 years—6 of them at Microsoft, recently focused on bringing AI to Teams and a variety of messaging experiences prior to that, with 2 years at Human Factors International building a strong foundation in usability. A master’s in Interaction Design and a bachelor’s in Industrial Design taught me to step beyond my comfort zone, embrace change with an open mind, and sparked a lasting love for creating tangible experiences.

Lately, I’ve turned inward—exploring the inner world as much as, if not more than, the external one. I'm always up for conversations about the human condition, art, cricket, or anything that excites you.
