About Me

I'm Piyush Punjwani, a recent graduate of Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE). Beyond my academic pursuits, I have a passion for reading, photography, and listening to music. These interests not only fuel my creativity but also inspire my work as a UI/UX Designer and Developer.

During my final year, I had the opportunity to undertake my second internship with ICETEAMEDIA Group, where I worked on my Final Year Project. Notably, both my professor and my industry mentor, who was also my employer, were impressed with the quality of my work. This experience allowed me to further refine my skills and solidify my passion for UI/UX design.

One of the standout moments during my time at ICETEAMEDIA Group was a project where I was tasked with researching and revamping a client's pre-existing website. This project went beyond just redesigning the visual aspects; it entailed in-depth research into current UI/UX trends and usability research. I'm proud to share that my work was well-received, and the client expressed a keen interest in continuing to collaborate with me on future research projects.

I've developed a strong empathy for users throughout my journey and consistently strive to create perfect designs that cater to their needs, while also being practical to fulfill the company’s objectives. Moreover, I've honed my skills in explaining complex UI/UX concepts to individuals with minimal prior knowledge in the field, making it easier for cross-functional teams to understand and collaborate effectively.

Looking ahead, I've been accepted into Loughborough University in the UK for postgraduate studies, set to commence in October 2023. This exciting opportunity will further enrich my knowledge and skills in the field of UI/UX design, and I'm eager to explore new horizons during my time there. Upon completing my postgraduate studies, my goal is to secure full-time employment in the UK.

For the next year, I'll be based in Loughborough, UK, with plans to remain in the country for an extended duration. As for the future, I'm open to exploring various possibilities and locations, keeping my options open for new experiences and opportunities.

Thank you for visiting my portfolio, and I invite you to explore my projects to gain a deeper understanding of my skills and design philosophy.
