About Me
Hi, I’m Varun, an Indo-Canadian interaction designer studying User Experience Design at /SCAD. Despite being at an art school, I am only learning to accept myself as a designer because of my technical mind. Nonetheless, my curiosity to learn just about anything brought me into the world of design.
My fascination with design lies somewhere near the intersection of psychology, art and technology. Areas of interest that I would enjoy working on include, but not exclusively: game UX, voice AI, smart home technology, and tools for developers + designers.
Outside of design, you can find me playing video games both for fun and as “literature”, at my /local comicbook shop picking up each week’s releases, writing my thoughts on /Medium (despite many not getting published) and trying to read more often.
