Nice to meet you! I'm Raghav

Pronounced raa·guhv. (he/him)

Born and raised in Delhi, India, I am an aspiring UX Designer/Researcher. Presently working as an eResources Specialist.

I graduated from McGill University in May, 2022 with a master's in Information Studies with an emphasis on Data Mining, Information & Cognition, Information Architecture, User-Centered Design, and Web System Design & Management. Before that, I completed my undergraduate degree in Instrumentation and Control Engineering. The intersection of design and engineering is where I find myself, falling and learning.

"You have an active mind and a keen imagination"
-Fortune Cookie, 2022

I am soulful, contemplative, and a little hella goofy.

I think the working knowledge of design comes to all living beings through instinct or intelligence. Design is in nature. If we understand it, we call it pattern, else we name it chaos.

Wouldn't it be weird if we were the mirror images of people on the other side of the mirror? Food for thought.

A lot has happened in the 9343 days since I was born

My heart has pumped 807,256 L of blood

I have spent 3114 days of my life asleep

I have traveled 24,294,468,000 km around the sun

I live with 1,923,013,880 more people on earth

And who knows what else will happen in my lifetime!

When I am not creating...

You can find me taking a stroll in the woods, catching Pokémons, connecting with people, and air-drumming! Maybe my next project could be VR drumming? Oh, well!
