Design, travel products

A little philosophy

I'm happiest when a hard problem finally clicks, and the interface makes it look obvious in hindsight.

Ten years in, I've led design across travel, real estate, gaming, and Web3/fintech.

I care about craft, but I care more about whether the thing actually works for the person on the other side of the glass.

I mentor loudly, prototype constantly, and believe a good design critique is the most underrated feature in any team.

Bad UI bothers me personally

I can't scroll past a clunky flow without mentally redesigning it. It's not always useful, but it's never off.

I remember the users, not just the metrics

Numbers tell me something moved. I still want to know who moved, and why it mattered to them.

Feedback is a gift I ask for often

I'd rather hear "this doesn't work" on day two than day twenty. I check in early and often, on purpose.

Kind words

What people I've worked with say.

Mudhit has brought creative energy to the MPL Product Design team which has not only elevated the product experience for customers but also how the team thinks of and approaches design.

Mudhit was always my go-to guy when we needed to bump up the delight factor of our features and he never disappoints.

Folks like Mudhit are rare finds and I was grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him.
