I'm Benjamin.
hello
Turning hidden insights into impactful experiences
Across 9 years of design work, I’ve remained committed to focusing on what lies beneath the iceberg - the systems, behaviors, and unseen forces that shape user experiences. My process moves from broad exploration to sharp definition, and from creative development to precise delivery, guided by data driven decisions that ensure meaningful, impactful outcomes for both users and the business.

What I'm proud of
theThinkBag
MIT institute of design, Pune
-
thethinkbag is an introspection tool that helps users visualize their thoughts before making a decision. It addresses the problem of how emotions may affect our decision making, and urges the user to think rationally before making a decision.
-
the thought behind thethinkbag was to have a friend who could listen to your problems and give you a rational solution. A friend whom you could depend on, someone who wouldn't judge you

Let's get in touch
Design to me is an opportunity to change the way we look at a problem. I'm a problem solver, keen not just to solve the issues found at the surface, but also to dig deeper and find those problems that cause the issue we see at the surface. Analyzing this through research and setting up directions to solve for it is what brings me the most joy at work and life :)
