Hi, I’m Preksha.
I am a product designer currently based in New York. I have recently graduated from Boston University with a bachelor’s in Computer Science and I am currently working as a Senior Product Designer for Digital Asset.
I discovered my passion for UX design in my sophomore year at college. That summer, I decided to develop a hand hygiene app and discovered the highlight of the project for me was research and design. UX design combined my creativity and passion for technology.
Currently, I am working on the product ecosystem for the Canton Network, the first open blockchain network designed to power synchronized financial markets and Daml Hub, a PAAS for Daml applications to simplify operations, accelerate deployment, and access the Canton Network.
In my free time, I like to do yoga, swim, thrift, paint, travel, go to concerts/music festivals, cook, and watch movies.
