About me

It's kind of difficult to describe what I do, but there are two main thrusts:

New Media: you can understand New Media as an innovative media that generates experiences using all the possible divergent media, expertise and emerging technologies; which in other words means I can create installations, exhibition spaces, multimedia, websites, virtual environments, and much more. Experiential participation and user delight is what it's all about.Read more here.

Interaction Design: since New Media projects are hard to come by, Interaction design is my primary pursuit. It primarily deals with the facilitation of communication between any number of entities. This communication can be between humans, computer to human, computer to computer, etc. Interaction design also acts as a kind of gamekeeper in such communication deciding how the communication takes place, why should it take place, who can interrupt whom, when, etc. In other words, I specialize in the organization and sequencing of information, primarily on a computer screen, in response to user input. User Interface design and a pinch of programming/prototyping fall under this line of work. read more »

What kind of designer are you?

I am a generalist, people first kind of designer. I make cool stuff. I like to work on projects cutting across domains and I consider this as my biggest asset/strength. I like to implement my own ideas/project and a strong computers/programming background helps a lot. More often then not, I end up being involved in every stage of produce development be it conceptualization, design, prototyping, development and deployment. I offer complete solutions. ;-)

OK... so what do you do?

My Fake flickr badge...

I am a designprenure, photographer, blogger and a mobile UX consultant. I run a cool work place (Maya Studios, founded in 2008) and do cool things on weekends - travel, photography, cooking, writing, etc. I like to work on projects cutting across domains and I consider this as my biggest asset/strength. My passion for photography gives acute observational and perceptive insights which helps me do my work better.

I have great interest in in cross-cultural social issues and emerging technologies. Being in the field working with real people is what I like best.

Specialties: I solve problems and get things done.
