Bio

Hi! I’m Upasana Pradhan. I am a multidisciplinary designer with a background in engineering from Nepal. With three years of experience building digital products, I aim to craft inclusive designs across physical product design and engineering disciplines. Driven by endless curiosity, I want to explore the intersection of art and engineering at MDes, focusing on details that significantly impact usability.

I am passionate about devising accessible tech solutions to simplify people’s daily lives. I believe that talking to people about their life experiences brings new problem-solving ideas.

I enjoy traveling to new places, playing basketball, and singing. In my spare time, I channel my creativity into up-cycling shoes by custom painting them. Combining my love for sneakers and painting, I give old shoes new life for people to walk on their personal journeys.
