About

I'm Nivi. I grew up in Chennai, India and moved to Dublin, Ireland three years ago.

My psychology background shapes how I approach every design decision: starting with the person using it, understanding what they need, and then figuring out how to make something that's both genuinely useful and nice to look at. I don't think functionality and aesthetics have to fight each other.

I spend most of my free time falling down pop culture rabbit holes, listening to music, reading, watching films, and wondering why hindsight is always 20/20.

Albums/books/movies that inspire me:
