What's Next, Pearl Academy & CNBC TV18

Greatful to have attended the ‘What’s next 2024’ conference, organized by Pearl Academy and CNBC-TV18; a wonderful event that brought together experts, innovators, and leaders from various fields to explore the future trends and challenges in design, technology, business, and society including Alok Nandi, Surya Vanka, and many more. The 'world cafe' format of discussions was a new experience where we exchanged ideas and insights on topics such as AI, sustainability, education, and social impact. I also had the honour of being on the stage, summarising and discussing the key takeaways from the sessions.

First attempt at Music Production

Tried out arranging music using Ableton Live and my Alesis V25. It’s fun playing with sound. What’s better than brining a bit of groove to Georgettan’s amazing Kochey song!

Galaxy Watch Active gets Bixby 2.0

I'm so proud to have lead the UX team that designed the Bixby 2.0 experience from ground up, for Galaxy Watch series.

It was extremely challenging to redefine the voice assistant experience on a small-screen device with limited hardware capabilities. Of course, there's a lot to improve, but this is a successful start for sure.

Baba-Black-Sheep, now works with Google Assistant

Happy to introduce my personal assistant, Baba black sheep on Google Assistant.

Started as a fun personal project, it's finally approved, and listed on Google Assistant web directory. There's a lot to improve, and that needs a lot of code, and that means I need to learn more.
