About Swathi Kirthyvasan

Lead UX Designer at Index Studio

I transitioned from Graphic Design to Product and UX 6 years ago and have enjoyed every moment. As someone who has been in the field for almost 8 years, I have seen a lot and worked a lot harder. And have loved every minute of it.

Since then, I have worked on challenging and exciting problems across domains and verticals, dealing with clients, leading projects and building exciting, cool and fun products.

I am currently exploring the Salesforce ecosystem - 1x certified at the moment, with the Salesforce UX Designer Certification. Other areas I am currently curious about and taking up lessons in are - AR/VR, AI & ML, UX Writing, UX Research, and Psychology.

I also dabble in writing, social media strategy, and marketing when I get the chance. It looks like I do a lot, no? But I love the learning involved in picking up a new skill - it's what makes my work day exciting!

And when I am not solving problems or writing, you can find me drawing, painting, reading and teaching art online (hopefully in-person, soon!).

You can find me on Instagram for all the artistic sides of me (@swathik26) or on LinkedIn for everything professional, or on Medium for everything content (swathi-kirthyvasan).

Cheers! 🥂
