Hi, I am Varshini Narayanan

I’m a product designer passionate about creating seamless, almost magical interactions—where technology just works effortlessly, without users having to think about it. I take a multidisciplinary approach, drawing from my background in information technology to develop innovative and culturally sensitive solutions. What excites me most is solving problems for diverse populations, and I’m always seeking new opportunities to make a meaningful impact.
‍
When I’m not designing intuitive user experiences, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, experimenting with new recipes, and creating artwork with my kids.

What do my peers say about my work?

Employee choice - honorable mentions - “She has been working hard to ensure that not only the titles experience is getting done but other servicing experiences are also being handled by her simultaneously. Thank you Varshini!”

Key contributor - Her performance has provided the design team with a great standard for how to dive into projects aggressively without compromising, cutting corners, or skipping steps unnecessarily. Her work ethic and commitment are never in doubt. She has happily taken on a new set of design responsibilities with servicing and is gaining momentum already.

Key contributor - Varshini has been great to work with on building out our Norman experience. She listens and understands our needs and makes sure everything is exactly how we need it for our experience, which is not how it was in the past with our previous Norman POC.

Key contributor - We got a superb design for texting! I have had a chance to use it in our testing servers, and it is very intuitive! My hat goes off to her for all her hard work and dedication to her craft!
