About me

I'm Praveen, Senior User Experience Designer at Microsoft since 2020, part of the Cloud+AI design team. My role is 100% focused on simplifying the seller experience at Microsoft. I spent the following 7.5 years at Adobe, working on a variety of exciting products in the creative authoring space. Before Adobe, I served 8.5 years at Honeywell as lead designer, responsible for defining overall user experience for Honeywell’s Aerospace, Automation and Control Solutions products. I have also worked as a creative consultant for many media and advertising agencies in India.

I hold a Bachelor in Fine Arts (BFA)- Applied Arts from Mysore University. I am a certified Human Computer-Interaction & Communication Designer from Industrial Design Center, IIT Bombay, India.

Apart from my day to day work, I am volunteering for technovationchallenge.org to mentor school girls. I am an active organizer of technology and design events at Microsoft and my previous organizations.
