Hi There!
I'm Pooja, your seasoned Sr. UX & Design Researcher with over a decade of experience in research and communication. In my previous role at Meta, I led research for multiple product teams across Instagram Stories, helping them smash KPIs while belting out tunes at SF and NYC karaoke nights (Yes, Researchers have fun too!).
Turning user insights into mind-blowing actionable product innovations is my jam! I'm a whiz at everything research, from planning and recruiting to interviews and analysis. Think of me as a data ninja squeezing insights from users to craft solutions that stick. I'm a user advocate who champions their needs to build experiences that truly move the needle.
With the rigor of research and creativity of design, let's create experiences that matter!
With the rigor of research and the creativity of design,
I create empathy-driven experiences that matter.
