AH·row·hee SHAH
I chose a career in user experience design because I strongly believe simple, seamless and intentional designs can make a huge impact on helping people easily achieve their goals. Additionally, the day-to-day on the job combines many of my strengths and passions such as logical problem solving, art/design, technology, collaboration, organization, and understanding people.
Along with being a designer, I am a volunteer teacher at a local Indian Sunday school and a photographer. The Shishu Bharati project is a learning management app inspired by my experience as an Indian language teacher. You can check out my photography on Instagram - @aarohisphotos.
The best way to contact me is through email at aarohimshah@gmail.com.

"One of Aarohi’s standout qualities is her adaptability. When a design presented technological challenges or had the potential to increase scope, she worked closely with engineers to understand the constraints. Aarohi would then revisit her design and return with a solution that balanced creativity with feasibility, ensuring the best outcomes for the project."
"Aarohi is a talented and dedicated individual who stands-out for her ability to learn and work collaboratively with her peers. Her participation in team meetings has shown me that she always respects others' opinions even when they differ from her own."​
