About Ashwarya Subhluxmi

Senior Design Manager at Credit Karma

I'm passionate about guiding designers and founders from the initial spark of an idea to successfully shipped products. With a strong background in Product and UX Design, I specialize in creating AI-driven consumer marketplaces and have experience building multiple products from concept to completion.

My expertise encompasses zero-to-one strategy, product clarity, portfolio storytelling, and the implementation of practical AI workflows that significantly enhance execution speed. I have had the privilege of designing impactful products, including the CK tax product now known as Square Tax, CK's PL Marketplace, and the Insurance Marketplace, and I currently lead design for innovative AI-first marketplace initiatives.

As a mentor, I focus on fostering career growth, refining product thinking, and assisting individuals in creating tangible products rather than just theoretical case studies.
