About

I am Afthab Ali, currently working as a Senior UX designer at PhonePe, India’s biggest payment app, after completing my master's education in Interaction Design from the National Institute of Design, Bengaluru. I have 4+ years of experience as a User Experience Designer working with clients across the world. I did my master’s thesis in Adobe Inc., where I proposed speculative concepts of an augmented reality eLearning content authoring tool.

I have been lucky to have my works been recognised globally, with Adobe honouring me as a Top talent in 2019. I was also one of the select few who were invited to Los Angeles for one of the biggest creativity conferences in the world, Adobe MAX. Adobe has also invited me to be one of the first live streamers to the live streaming feature introduced in Behance.

In addition, I have been awarded by Design Intelligence Award (DIA), China, User Experience Professionals Association (UXPA) Scottsdale, Arizona, NASSCOM Design4India, Association of Designers India (ADI), UXIndia, UXPlorer, Taiwan international student design competition, and C2A awards to name a few. I am immensely proud to have grown by the side of the technology that defines our present life. As a result, I became increasingly aware of its impact on people, art, entertainment, business, politics, and science. Having borne its fruit all my life, I consider myself responsible to elevate it further and take it closer to people and make technology more humane.
