UX
Designer
Himanshu Patel-,-
I got interested in design during college. Since then it has been a beautiful learning experience during
which I developed my design knowledge, skills and applied them in various projects. It has been a journey
from the narrow perspective of design as "how it looks" to design as "how it works". My style of design is
simple, intuitive and functional.
