Hey, I'm Jahnavi, I am a product designer based out of Pittsburgh, PA with more than 3 years of experience in product and experience design. In the last couple years I've worn many hats, from research to ideation and impactful innovation. Recently, I was adding my bit to India's EV revolution, working at Ather energy (EV’s)
While tackling various projects in the industry, I was able to recognise the importance of cross functional learning and problem solving very quickly. Apart from design, my strongest contributions in professional settings revolve around collaboration, communication, team building and crafting experiences.
Moving forward, my goal is to craft solutions for a better futures, encompassing social impact, sustainability, and addressing climate change.
