MY ALTER EGO
Outside of my regular design work, I also enjoy creating art as an independent artist. Under the name Arterwaund, I collaborate with indie musicians to design album covers and videos. I also work with small businesses to create custom artworks and merchandises for their Business. It's a great way to explore different creative avenues and connect with other artists and entrepreneurs.

Hi, I’m Shruti! I’m a freshly minted MFA graduate in Service Design from SCAD, ready to dive into full-time opportunities in product design. With over 4 years of experience crafting human-centered solutions, I thrive on turning complex problems into creative, impactful designs.
For me, design is more than just solving problems—it's about creating experiences that feel intuitive, engaging, and, most importantly, meaningful. I love blending product, experience, and service design to craft solutions that make people’s lives easier and a little more delightful.
I’m big on digging deep with research, bringing ideas to life through concept development, and telling stories that connect with people. Whether it’s simplifying the complicated or adding a touch of surprise, my goal is to design products and services that resonate and inspire.
Let’s create something amazing together! If you’re looking for a designer who’s all about creativity, empathy, and a dash of fun, I’m your person.
MY DESIGN MANTRAS
Passionate about empowering people: I believe design should bridge the gap between human needs and technological possibilities, creating experiences that are intuitive, delightful, and empower users to achieve their goals.
Boldly pushing the boundaries of design: I thrive on tackling complex challenges and crafting original solutions that haven't been seen before. I believe in the power of design to break the mold and redefine what's possible.
Bridge the gap between siloes: I don't believe in design confined to isolated boxes. I weave together service, experience, and product threads to create seamless solutions that resonate across the user journey.

FUN FACTS ABOUT ME
When I'm not designing, I work as a docent at the SCAD Museum. I really enjoy talking about art, maybe a bit too much sometimes. Visitors come for a tour, leave with an art degree.
In a family full of doctors and engineers, I'm the black sheep with a paintbrush. Imagine the family dinners: "So, how's the doctoring?" "Great! How's the... coloring?"
Oh, and I have an irrational fear of birds. Pigeons and chickens are basically my archenemies. Give me a challenging design brief over a feathered friend any day.
