I'm Dhiya, a student @ UC San Diego studying Cognitive Science

with a specialization in Design and Human-Computer Interaction,

with a minor in Marketing!

I'm a designer who follows curiosity and instinct more than a fixed

process - cognitive science trained me to ask why before what,

so I tend to notice the small things: the way a warm palette settles a

space, the way a hover state can make someone feel noticed instead

of ignored. Funny enough, it all started with a t-shirt design competition,

which somehow turned into a full obsession with product design.

I work primarily in Figma and Framer, and I like exploring new tools -

like Claude Design - and features that can help push the design process

forward.

I'm a detail-driven designer willing to sit with a problem a little longer to

understand what's actually going on beneath it, and to find solutions that feel

innovative rather than obvious!
