Profile
With the educational and interpersonal skills and the experience that I possess as an individual and which have been developed by my family, friends and the various educational institutions in which I have studied, I want to be dedicated to my career without transgressing the ethics.
Being a firm follower of the User Centric Design process, I have delivered both enterprise and consumer applications for the Indian and International users with precise results.I have relevant experience in bringing together a good product even in smaller timelines and tighter schedules while working with multiple teams, which, I believe has helped me gain a better understanding of both the textual process and the practical process of design.

Testimonials
My first interaction with Abhilash was on a project that was in a critical stage. Abhilash's calm and measured approach to handling the crisis-like situation impressed me the most. He took charge and completed the design deliverables within time with high quality. Over the period of last 2 years or so, I have had the privilege to observe Abhilash's deliverables and approach to design work from the close quarters and i only have the positive things to say about what I saw. He is a high skilled designer. Product Design is an area where Abhilash is uniquely talented and something he loves doing. He is inherently curious and questions things and in the process of doing so, builds his knowledge and adds value to the product simultaneously. In the various presentations he delivered on his design options, I could see the user empathy being at the center of the conversation. He is highly respected for his work and I would highly recommend him.

He also is quite persuasive in pushing his ideas and is willing to root for what he believes in. He is always ready to help clear any last minute UI issues even if it means he has to stretch a bit.
