Hi there! I am Santosh Sonnad, an engineer turned designer, with over 2.5 years of experience. Based in Bangalore.


I've worked with fast-paced startups and mid-sized companies across B2B, B2C, and SaaS domains, with projects in HR-tech, e-commerce, and business.


Outside of work, you’ll often find me exploring new ideas or planning my next adventure.


Fueled by coffee, curiosity and the occasional late-night ideas.

I believe in continuous improvement. Never settle for mediocrity-there's always room to make designs better, one iteration at a time.
