UX Research · Service Design · CX

Hi, I'm Akila.

I’m drawn to problems that sit between people, systems, and organizations. My background spans UX research, customer experience, service design, and learning design, and I use research, data, and systems thinking to understand how those pieces connect and where experiences break down.
