Hello, again :)

I'm Dhanshri

/dhan · shree/

I'm a UX designer who brings structure to ambiguity and energy to complex challenges. With a foundation in architecture and a love for systems thinking, I design experiences that are thoughtful, clear, and deeply human.


Most recently, I led UX at DiscoverU Health, shaping products from research through developer handoff. I blend user insights with product strategy to create solutions that actually stick. Whether it’s streamlining onboarding or clarifying dense workflows, I’m always asking — how can this be more meaningful, more usable, more kind?


What excites me most is turning messy, layered problems into grounded, elegant interfaces that feel effortless — not just to use, but to understand.

What differentiates me as a designer

I design with an architectural mindset

I think in systems, patterns, and spatial hierarchy. This helps me bring structure to complex flows and make early-stage decisions that scale without chaos.

I move fast in unclear environments

I thrive in early-stage or shifting projects. I turn vague docs and scattered insights into actionable flows, always anchored in user behavior and constraints.

I simplify with intent

I don’t just reduce clutter. I focus on what the user actually needs in the moment, making interactions lighter, clearer, and faster without removing meaning.

I bridge people, not just pixels

I align quickly with devs, PMs, and stakeholders across time zones. My strength is translating needs clearly so teams stay unblocked and progress stays focused.

I stay grounded in real constraints

I consider dev feasibility early, ask questions that surface edge cases, and design with what’s practical.

The other side of me — stories that shaped how I design

  • Taught HCI and Ethics as an Associate Instructor at IUB, which helped me simplify complex ideas and practice intentional listening.

    Camping at Indiana Dunes reminded me how much I value stillness, presence, and simplicity

    Captured this while studying in France, exploring spatial rhythm and visual storytelling through photography.

    Branded and marketed my mom’s home-chef business, helping her hit $12K in 4 months.

    Volunteered at U&I Trust, a non-profit organization, teaching Math and Science to K-12 students., increasing empathy and pateince
