Hi there! Thank you for stopping by.
​
I'm Athira, and I'm a product designer who strives to create inclusive and user-friendly experiences that are also visually pleasing.
​
I started out as a UX designer at Cigna for three years, during which I completed my MS in Human-Computer Interaction at RIT. Currently, I'm a senior product designer at System1 in Seattle.
​I aim to create experiences that advance business goals by empowering users, and I make sure inclusivity and empathy are addressed in every step of the design process. I'm not afraid of tackling new challenges through hard work, creative problem-solving, and team collaboration.
In my free time, I love to crochet, hike, and hang out with my dog.
​
Please don't hesitate to reach out! I would love to connect.
