I did a white-boarding session with Nikhil that helped me understand how to approach problems in a structured way and improved my confidence. The session felt very practical and hands-on. It gave me a better sense of how to communicate my thinking clearly.

Had a whiteboard session with Nikhil and it genuinely changed how I approach problem-solving. He helped me understand where I was going wrong - not in ideas, but in structuring my thinking. The way he breaks down a problem, asks the right questions, and connects user needs with business goals was super insightful. I now feel more confident walking into a whiteboard round because I know how to think, not just what to design. Highly recommend!
Hi, I’m Nikhil. I’m a Product Designer with over 13 years of industry experience, currently working as a Lead Product Designer @ Injala. Over the years, I’ve grown through multiple roles, industries, and challenges and that journey is what shapes how I mentor today.
I’ve worked closely with designers, product managers, engineers, and founders, and I’ve seen how confusion, self-doubt, and lack of direction can slow down capable people early in their careers. Many talented designers struggle not because they lack skill, but because they don’t have clarity on what to focus on or how to think through decisions.
My mentorship style is practical, honest, and empathetic. I focus less on giving answers and more on helping you think clearly about problems, trade-offs, and next steps. Whether you’re exploring UX or product design, preparing for interviews, improving your portfolio, or feeling stuck in your career, my goal is to help you gain confidence and direction.
If you leave a session with clarity, a realistic plan, and belief in your own growth, I consider that a meaningful impact.
