Hi! I'm Nandini Desai, a product designer at Triton Software Engineering, where I focus on creating efficient, streamlined user experiences. From a young age, I was always drawing and sketching, which ignited my passion for combining creative expression with practical problem-solving. This led me to the field of product design, where I meld my interests in technology, psychology, and design.
I am currently studying Cognitive Science with a specialization in Human-Computer Interaction, and minoring in Computer Science at the University of California, San Diego. Raised in the vibrant SF Bay Area, I've grown to cherish the intricate behaviors and psychological underpinnings that shape our interactions with technology.
My work is driven by a profound curiosity about human behavior, sustainability, and healthcare technology, always exploring how to make technology more empathetic and humane. When I'm not churning away at a Figma file, I enjoy going to local thrift markets, exploring new coffee shops in San Diego, and gaining insights into product design through podcasts like How I Built This.ッ

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
I’m an innovator with a strong ethos of implementing people’s creative visions through iterative design.

I’m an innovator with a strong ethos of implementing people’s creative visions through iterative design.
I used to think design was just making things pretty. That was before I joined Triton Software Engineering. Not only did I learn to create engaging web content, but I also learned how to work within the sphere of development constraints to cross-functionally problem-solve. Joining this organization has truly shaped my design perspective to learn that design, like development, is just my preferred vehicle for creating functional solutions that solve business problems.
