I’m Rohan, a digital designer. Specifically, a software designer. I dissect real-life-human problems and help teams build solutions that are computer-driven, functional, and beautiful. I’m drawn to high powered, talented teams looking to radically change people’s lives for the better.

To me, the art of creating software is about balance, about partners working together. Human / Computer, Builder / User, Teammate / Teammate. Let’s make intentional, thoughtful software that people actually want to use.

When I'm not building technology you can catch me outside, making music, coding audiovisualizers in Touchdesigner, or playing video games.

Ethos –

Design as practice is a lightning rod for good ideas. It should be collaborative by nature.
No technology is neutral. Modern life is filled with digital tools, and the forms they take are important.
Craft can be the differentiator. Getting there first doesn't predicate success.
In 2024, good design is not invisible – it's not only noticed, but celebrated.
