Hi! My name is Om. I’m a UX and visual designer focused on ethics, well-being, and accessibility.

As a student at Middlebury College, I created an independent major in Humane Design, studying ethical interactions between people and technology. The major integrated visual design, neuroscience, ecology, public policy, data science, and philosophy. I graduated Summa Cum Laude in 2022 and spoke at commencement.

Over the years, I've worked with 30 clients across 4 continents, created pitch decks to raise $20M for startups, and co-taught design-thinking workshops at the Stanford d.school and the MIT-backed Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology. Currently, I’m a designer on the Cloud & Cognitive Software team at IBM.

I believe all systems—from visual to social—are at their most efficient when they’re kind and transparent. I’m always game to talk urban design, deep ecology, data ethics, emergent phenomena, and language.
