I am Shantanu, who this?
A product designer with 12+ years of experience solving complex product challenges through human-centered, end-to-end experiences and scalable systems.

I specialize in turning messy, ambiguous problems into clear product direction. From early discovery to shipped experiences, I focus on building products that scale, make sense to users, and actually get used.

I've worked closely with founders, PMs, and engineers, often acting as the connective tissue between design, product, and tech. I enjoy being in the thick of it: aligning teams, shaping systems, and making sure good ideas survive contact with reality.

From zero to one and one to scale, I care about the whole product lifecycle, not just screens, but decisions, trade-offs, and long-term impact.

Outside the design world, it's boss fights, anime marathons, and the occasional adventure - currently leveling up with Cursor AI 🍵 ✨ 😎
