Hi, I'm Harshitha, a creator that designs for creators.

Selected work

Decisions, not decoration.

Three honest case studies showing how I frame ambiguity, make tradeoffs, and learn from prototypes.

01/Muse AI Companion

Product design & AI/User research • Competitive analysis

Helping museum visitors connect with art through conversational AI

02/Social dining app

Internship project/Competitive review • User interviews

Turning shared meals into low-pressure social plans

03/Collaborative learning app

Graduation project/Student interviews • Affinity mapping

Helping students ask, contribute, and learn together

How I work

The process flexes with the problem. These are the moves I use to keep decisions grounded and teams aligned.

01
Frame the real question
Research the intersection of physical spaces and AI interaction before assuming the visible problem is the right one.
Muse AI Companion · competitive research
02
Make tradeoffs visible
Use flows and prototypes to turn abstract discussion into concrete choices a team can evaluate.
Social dining · concept alignment
03
Learn before polishing
Test the riskiest assumptions early, then use what we learn to simplify the experience.
Collaborative learning · concept testing

Available for product design roles

I'm open to working with teams that care about understanding the problem before polishing the answer.
