Making digital
things feel human.
I’m Shivam — a Computer Science student at IIT Patna who loves turning complex, messy problems into clear, curious and intuitive digital experiences across research, interaction, and prototypes.
👋
Things I’ve
made & learned.
Three deep dives across end-to-end mobile product UX, real-time safety systems with computer vision, and playful web art direction.
The fun is in making the problem clearer.
I enjoy the messy middle: asking sharper questions, finding the hidden structure in complex spaces, and crafting systems people love using.
01. Understand & Discover
Uncover user friction, mental models, and technical constraints through interviews and competitive analysis before jumping to visuals.
02. Structure & Architecture
Translate insights into user flows, information architecture, edge-case maps, and intuitive product hierarchies.
03. Prototype & Design
Iterate rapidly from low-fi wireframes to interactive high-fidelity prototypes with comprehensive design tokens and micro-interactions.
04. Test & Refine
Validate with real users to eliminate friction, optimize accessibility (WCAG), and polish every state and transition.
Designer brain.
Computer Science foundation.
Bridging human experience with technical reality.
I’m a Computer Science senior at IIT Patna specializing in UI/UX and Product Design. Having a technical foundation means I understand what happens behind the screen — data models, performance, and API states — allowing me to design interfaces that are not just beautiful, but technically viable and scalable.
Computer Science & Engineering Senior
What I Care About
Design that respects user attention and makes the path of least resistance the right one.
- Clarity Over Decoration: Visuals must support user comprehension.
- Tactile Micro-Interactions: Purposeful motion that gives delightful feedback.
- Accessibility First: High contrast, clear hierarchy, and inclusive design.
What I Bring to Teams
A hybrid skillset that accelerates product development from discovery to shipping.
- Full-Cycle UX: Research, wireframing, high-fi UI, and design systems.
- Technical Empathy: Fluent communication with frontend & engineering.
- Systems Mindset: Thinking in edge cases, component states, and scalability.
Design is a playground.
Not everything needs to be a rigid case study. These are dedicated interactive sandboxes for testing typography scales, spring physics micro-interactions, and visual experiments.
PLAY
Live sliders for scale, tracking, variable font weights and kinetic wave effects.
INTERACTIONS
Spring buttons, neo-toggles, tactile ripple physics and celebratory confetti bursts.
EXPERIMENTS
Interactive particle fields, dynamic generative pattern engines and badge builders.
Where practice
gets real.
