ABOUT AKSHAT NIRANJAN

Innovation is asking the right question as much as it is approaching a question differently. As an engineer, I learned how to deconstruct problems into systems and components - finding structure and process within ambiguity. As a data scientist, I learned how to answer questions equipped with data-driven insights - using facts, metrics, and evidence to make decisions. But most importantly, as a design and UX researcher, I am learning how to identify the problems and questions that truly matter (especially for the end-user)- exploring many problem frames and understanding the voice of the customer before creating any business solution and new ventures. I\'ve used and built on these learnings through a series of exciting clients and projects in my career.
