She is full of energy. We talked about so many things around the topic. Probably a good adviser and, honestly, highly recommended. The thing I was highly appreciated was her ability to pinpoint not only the right answer to my question, but the real concern I have behind it, which is rare.

The session with Saumya was extremely insightful. She appreciates the correct measures taken, while also helping in making them better and stand out. She was very proactive to offer suggestions and help while going through my resume and portfolio review. Have already booked another session with her and hoping to get more insights from her!

It was a great session with Soumya. She was very kind, empathetic and took keen interest in solving all the concerns i had. The session turned out to be more than I expected, after this session I had much better clarity on Ireland's job market, Scholarships and How to find out Accommodation. If anyone is looking for mentorship I would highly recommend getting in touch with Soumya.

About me
--A Little About Me:
I am a Product/UX Designer with a total experience of over 8 years in researching, designing, and delivering user-centric digital products and services in the real estate and education sectors. I am currently working as a Product Designer with Ministry Brands, Galway, Ireland.
My academic and professional journey blends the domain of engineering, human psychology, and UX research and design. I have worked on various projects involving SAAS products, B2B and B2C platforms, mobile apps, and marketing websites. I have a Master's degree in Human-Computer Interaction from University College Dublin.
--My Learnings:
This extensive experience has honed my analytical skills, strategic decision-making capabilities, and a profound understanding of crafting simple, intuitive, and effective solutions. It has equipped me with the insights to create design solutions that seamlessly integrate empathy for users, adapt effortlessly to current technology, and align cohesively with business objectives. I bring an empathetic approach to my creative processes, always guided by a profound curiosity about users, their interactions with products, and how these experiences shape design outcomes.
--My Vision:
I aim to foster a career in the field of User Experience/ Product & Service Design and Research and exhibit an empathetic approach to creativity & innovations in my work, coupled with a keen curiosity about users, their product experiences & consecutive designs.
Coming from a non-design background initially, I am very well acquainted with the complexities of breaking and surviving in this fast-paced forever evolving arena. And so with this mentorship initiative, I aspire to support others in their journey and add a little from my end to build a more cohesive design ecosystem, offering guidance and fostering a culture of collaboration and growth.
--Beyond the Professional Sphere:
I'm also an avid explorer of the tech world through my writings on Medium, where I share insights and epiphanies from my journey through the ever-evolving tech landscape. When not immersed in technology or design, I find solace and inspiration in nature's beauty, often venturing into the wild for hikes and treks I also enjoy immersing myself in reading and doing book reviews.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me a little better. I look forward to the opportunity to share, learn, and grow together in this exciting field of UX design and mentorship.
