My Design Journey

I worked as an architect for eight years and am now transitioning into UX design. During my career in architecture, I developed a deep understanding of how thoughtful design can shape human experiences.

Now on a sabbatical, I’m transitioning into UX design, driven by a passion for crafting delightful and sustainable digital products. I view design as a user-centered process that balances analytical thinking with creativity, always grounded in a deep understanding of user behaviour, needs, and aspirations. My goal is to apply my architectural insights, leadership skills, and design expertise to contribute to meaningful user research, problem-solving, and design strategy.

Greg Moore

Chief Architect at Evergreene Homes

Manasi joined Potomac Consulting Services Pvt. Ltd. in January 2018 and quickly stood out for her leadership and dedication. After her training, she became one of two team leaders in our architecture group. She rapidly grasped our international residential design practice, which serves the Mid-Atlantic region of the U.S. Her ability to lead and mentor the team significantly enhanced their collective knowledge. Over her three years, she led various residential projects with a focus on the International Residential Code and American home-building standards. Manasi is a highly skilled architect, fully capable of tackling challenges and delivering well-designed homes. I strongly recommend her for future opportunities in the design field.
