The Vault

Well, your curiosity got you here!

Feel free to explore my other projects that I have dabbled in.

Being a researcher and designer means your visual skills in converting data and insights should be top-notch. Lately, information visualisation has been a skill I have been working on using tools like Tableau and Power BI. This skill helps me tie different teams together and present data to the business side in their language. Thinking about data in a way that helps answer questions can make a big impact on building solutions.

Research Publication

For a researcher (by profession and heart), academic readings and discussions form a core component for my learning of existing theories and novel research taking place in the fields of my interest. Feel free to peruse through four of my published research papers in collaboration with professors and experts from the University of Delhi, Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Potentials Therapy Center, and You're Wonderful Project.

Data Visualization Dashboards

Industry & Job Trends (2024)

The primary purpose of our visualization is to provide an overview of the landscape of the job market in the United States in recent years and display job-related data that can help people assess different industries and occupations, whether they are actively seeking jobs or simply curious about employment trends. The data comes from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), focusing primarily on Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) and Employment Projections (EP) data.

King County Onboard Survey (2025)

King County Metro, the transit services agency in the Puget Sound Region of Washington state, runs a county-wide onboard survey to better understand Metro riders, particularly given changes in travel patterns post-pandemic. Embedded in the research team, I was a core player in the conception, execution, and analysis of the onboard survey.
