About me
001

Hello, I’m Shivani, but you can call me Shiv!
I’m a User Experience Designer who is based in New Jersey. I’m a designer who thrives on solving problems through practical and instinctive design. I’m passionate about crafting products and experiences that uplift both our lives and communities.
As a designer, with a background in business and economics, I am especially equipped to act as a bridge between design and business requirements. I use my diverse background to make informed choices fast. If you’re curious about what it is like to work with me, feel free to read my user manual.
I strive to be a good designer and a good mentor. My goal is to one day be a compassionate, open-minded and approachable design leader but right now, I am having a blast designing cool things.

When I am not at my desk…

My Dog, Taco
You can find me enjoying the park with my dog, Taco. He is a fluffy goldendoodle with compassion and love for everyone. Think giant teddy bear! With his friendly personality and affectionate nature, he’s a natural big brother to my son, adding an extra touch of meaning to our lives!

Board Games
I’m a big fan of board games and enjoy attending events like PAX to discover new ones. There’s a sense of accomplishment you can get while playing. It’s not just about winning, but also about the strategy, making clever moves, outwitting opponents, or seeing a well-thought-out plan come together.

Crafting
I’m passionate about crafting, and my go-to tool has been my Cricut Maker. I enjoy organizing and labeling stuff, making shirts, dog bandanas, and decorations for various occasions like weddings and birthdays. Designing on my Cricut and adding fresh items to my Etsy Shop brings me a lot of joy.

Traveling
I love traveling and immersing myself in diverse cultures. It pushes us beyond our comfort zones, encouraging us to explore, taste, and engage with the unfamiliar. I’ve explored Australia, New Zealand, London, Italy, Paris, Canada, Mexico, India, and Jamaica.
