Hello! I'm Manali Bapat, a Product Designer, currently working at Mindtickle, designing the future of Asset Hub. My journey in product design has been an exhilarating ride, fueled by curiosity and a passion for creating things.

🚀 Experience: My journey till now has taken me through different teams and organizations, with a comprehensive experience of 3+ years, allowing me to gain valuable insights into B2B Product Design, User Research, Design Systems and Visual Design.
Currently, I'm making waves as a Product Designer at Mindtickle. Here, I've spearheaded impactful revamp projects, breathing new life into Manager Reports and enhancing user experience across the board. I delved into various design directions, creating screen mockups that breathed life into page widgets and conducting in-depth comparative analyses. My collaborative spirit shines as I work closely with cross-functional teams, weaving together innovative solutions that resonate with our users. At the recent Data Carnival Hackathon, I served as a Product Desig SME, translating conceptual visions into compelling designs.
During my stint as a Product Design Intern at Tekion Corp, I played a pivotal role in crafting a comprehensive design system for iPadOS, seamlessly integrating user feedback to deliver an immersive application experience. During my previous tenure at Maruti Suzuki, I got an exciting opportunity to work in a new domain and design for Car Interface. My active participation in the iterative design and user research helped me excel at these skills. Regular feedback and presentations with overseas teams enabled me to be a better presenter and communicator.

🎓 Education: Armed with a Master's in Design from the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Hyderabad, I honed my skills in crafting immersive user experiences. My Bachelor's in Architecture from Savitribai Phule Pune University laid a solid foundation for my design journey, instilling in me a keen eye for detail and a passion for storytelling through design.

💼 Previous Endeavors: My design journey commenced during my Architecture studies (B. Arch), where my mentor exposed me to diverse design domains. Keen to delve deeper into design, I joined Design Consultants Architects LLP, leading projects ranging from Website and Social Media design to Product Design innovation. Collaborating closely with the founder imparted insights into crucial business elements such as team-building and leadership.

Let's connect! I'm open to networking and exploring potential collaborations. I am reachable at manalibapat01@gmail.com
