I am a creative problem-solver, sneakerhead, and coffee enthusiast.
Hey, I’m Akshay—a product designer based in SF who turns complex systems into high-value, intuitive experiences. At Amplitude, I am building out Agentic workflows for our CX to increase product adoption and reduce help tickets. At Workday, I designed AI agent experiences for Workforce & Pay. Previously, I built data-heavy workflows at Datadog and VMware. I specialize in AI agent & generative AI workflows, data visualization, and enterprise design. I am thoughtful, and detail-oriented with my work, but I also understand how to ship quickly and work in both smaller and larger product teams.
My mission: understand how people actually think and feel, then ship interfaces that feel like magic. Outside of work, you’ll find me chasing sneaker drops, playing basketball, and trying new cafés.
