Smit was very friendly, he made me feel comfortable since the beginning and answered all of my questions. He went above and beyond to help me understand my portfolio and actually gave practical advice.

I had the opportunity to connect with Smit Patel, and it was an incredibly valuable experience. He guided me on how I can improve my design process, suggested what I should learn next, and even gave me detailed feedback on my resume and portfolio. As a junior designer, this was exactly the kind of direction I needed. He shares his knowledge generously and with clarity — anyone looking to grow in design definitely should try connecting with him. Truly grateful for his time and insights!

I absolutely loved the interaction. Smit was not only friendly but also helped me clarify my focus when I was feeling uncertain. :)))
🌟 I’m a Product & UX/UI Designer with 2 years of hands‑on experience crafting human‑centric products from ideation through launch. I build wireframes, prototypes, and visual designs, grounded in data‑driven research and usability testing. My technical toolkit spans user research, feedback analysis, rapid prototyping, interaction design, and responsive web layouts, enabling me to collaborate seamlessly with engineers and cross‑functional teams.
🧳 My Journey & Impact
After earning a degree in development and working as a design lead at college, I discovered how powerful product design can be when backed by strong technical foundations and a deep understanding of users. As a self‑employed designer, I’ve delivered four major projects that demonstrate my commitment to measurable outcomes:
👉 Neoglobe: Streamlined user flows to cut steps, boosting conversion by 15 %, improving SEO, and elevating brand credibility with purposeful UX writing and image curation, and launched MVP. We are now advancing towards implementing a higher-level user experience for overall business development.
👉 Econova: Currently leading a team of UX designers, collaborating with PMs, and engineers to research users and market needs for a pilot MVP—aiming to reduce partner operational costs by 60%.
👉 Conversion‑focused Product Design: Redesigned workflows and added delightful micro‑interactions to achieve +30 % conversion, +20 % retention, and improved 37 % usability after testing, for Dream Big Translation.
👉 B2B SaaS Enterprise Dashboard: Developed 30+ reusable components with usage guidelines—running stakeholder alignment sessions and iterating to increase interaction speed by 12 %.
Each project sharpened my research, testing, and collaboration skills—and reinforced my belief that every design decision should be rooted in real user data and business goals.
