about me

Hi! I am Sakeena, an award-winning multi- disciplinary designer living in Mumbai. I have graduated from Pearl Academy and I'm currently working as a Senior user experience designer at Accenture.

Interaction design is my first love and my bread and butter. However, I also have a huge appetite for all things graphic design. I enjoy creating intuitive, meaningful, and soulful designs. On the side I mentor design students at universities, on various platforms as well as those who slide into my DMs. It's my way of giving back to the design community that has given me so much.

Apart from design, I am a total board game geek, have a
love for dance, a connoisseur for memes and a sucker for lemon tarts.
