I was born in Bangalore, India, raised in Minnesota, and have had the opportunity to live in Austin, TX for four years and San Francisco, CA for one. Now, I’m excited to return home and put down roots in Minneapolis, MN!

When I’m not working, you’ll likely find me cooking, traveling, spending time with loved ones, decorating, creating (I drew the art at the bottom of this page!), or planning something exciting—like my wedding! I married my childhood best friend in March 2024.

I just completed a six-month world tour/honeymoon— exploring new cultures and gaining personal insights along the way. It was truly a life changing experience. Now, I am eager to dive into a new role!

I hold a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Minnesota and found my passion in UX and Conversation Design. I’ve designed digital and conversational experiences for brands like Apple and Williams Sonoma, and led creative work through my own business, Raiyer Events. I’m now seeking a full-time role where I can help shape thoughtful, intuitive user experiences—especially those powered by emerging AI technologies.
