Introduction
I am Hema
product designer
I found product design through human factors engineering and enjoyed the human-centered perspective that falls in the middle of functionality and usability. While continuing to develop this craft, I am also focusing on becoming a better mentor and leader.
I’m always curious and love exploring new places and things.
