Yukti's UX Portfolio

About Me

Hi there! I'm Yukti, a recent graduate with a degree in Computer Science & Cognitive Science from the University of California, Santa Cruz. I'm currently a UX designer at Oracle's Energy and Water Global Business Unit, where I'm honing my design skills by crafting intuitive interfaces for enhanced customer experiences.

I've always been inspired by design as an art form, and combining that passion with technology and a drive to help others naturally led me to the world of UX. Since discovering UX design early in my college career, I've immersed myself in real-world projects. I've served as Co-President at Creative Tech Design, led design initiatives at the Tech4Good lab, and gained valuable experience through internships at places like Pattern and Oracle. I thrive in collaborative environments, enjoy creating thoughtful, user-centered designs, and am passionate about developing technology that makes a difference.

Art has always been a deep passion of mine, serving as a creative outlet where I can fully express myself. My artistic journey began in a rather unconventional way—by painting and sculpting on small toys called Littlest Pet Shops. This unique start allowed me to experiment with various mediums, and I've since expanded my skills into sculpting, painting, digital art, and most recently, embroidery!

Outside of art and design, I spend a lot of my time with the stray cats that have taken up residence in my backyard. One cat in particular, Grund, has become especially close to my heart. She has a silly and loving personality that's inspired me to feature her throughout my portfolio.
