About Me
Howdy! I’m Swayam — a nomadic product designer passionate about art, technology, and all things creative!
At Agora, I’m part of the team building tools for the future of real-time communication. As the second product design hire, I’ve had the opportunity to shape core product experiences, developer docs, marketing websites, and design systems from the ground up, while collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to strengthen our design culture.
With a background in Computer science, I have a soft spot for crafting seamless developer experiences and often find myself bridging conversations between design and engineering.
Design quite literally changed my career trajectory and I wouldn't be half the designer I am today without some truly amazing mentors showing me the ropes. Now, I love paying it forward and helping others fall in love with design the way I did.
