About Me

Hey! I'm Sushwanth, a second-year student pursuing an Integrated M.Tech in Artificial Intelligence. My journey blends two passions that might seem opposite — but are deeply complementary.

As an AI Engineer, I build systems that learn, predict, and reason — from machine learning pipelines to neural architectures. I'm driven by the challenge of making machines genuinely intelligent.

As a UX Designer, I believe that powerful technology fails when it's hard to use. I advocate for user-centred thinking, research-driven design, and interfaces that feel intuitive, not intimidating.

The sweet spot? AI-powered products that are both smart and delightful. That's my north star.

My Two Paths

🎨
Path A

UX Designer

Designing experiences that connect people to technology intuitively. I research, wireframe, prototype, and iterate — ensuring that every interaction is purposeful, accessible, and even joyful. My focus: AI-powered interfaces that feel human.

🤖
Path B

AI Engineer

Building intelligent systems from scratch — from data preprocessing and model training to deployment and inference optimisation. Fascinated by LLMs, computer vision, and real-world AI applications that actually solve problems.
