Expert feedback

Read insights and praises from mentors and peers who have guided and witnessed my professional growth.

"I was very fortunate to have had Kumar as a Product Design Lead on the Merchant Onboarding team! He is a great thought partner, and understands how to take complex business and technical requirements and turn them into clean, elegant designs that delight the user.
Kumar excels at providing user experience and design solutions to large and extremely complex projects with evolving business requirements in a calm and confident manner. He works very well with development teams and his technical knowledge and understanding is a highly sought after skill set. In the last few years I have seen nothing but solid communication and presentation to business and technology partners, as well as a strong advocate for the user. Kumar has a calm demeanor and a great work ethic. He has been a pleasure to work with, and is always respectful and supportive of others on the team. Kumar will be a valuable asset to any design group, and I am looking forward to seeing what great things he will do in his future and would jump at the chance of working with him again in the future."

Creative Director & Design Mentor

I had the pleasure of collaborating with Kumar on the Merchant Services team at Wells Fargo. Together, we focused on delivering Figma designs for merchant onboarding software, frequently creating assets, specifications, and prototypes for complex forms, multi-user dashboards, and other transformative business experiences.
Kumar is incredibly reliable—give him the seed of an idea, and he’ll have something ready for review the very next day. He excels in iterative software development, skillfully aligning cross-functional business and development teams toward common UX and design strategy goals.

Highly skilled in Figma, Kumar is an expert in building design systems and crafting interactive prototypes. He’s an invaluable asset to any team.

I’d be thrilled to work with him again in the future.
