Hi, I’m Sonia Patel, a Visual/UI designer and founder focused on crafting human-centered digital experiences and brands. I lead end-to-end product design for wellness apps and digital campaigns, from user research and prototyping to visual identity and interface design. I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to create accessible, aesthetically cohesive experiences across iOS, Android, and web, while aligning design choices with business goals. When I’m not designing, I explore wellness and community-building through teaching and hosting experiences, and I design websites, campaigns, and print materials that tell a story. I love turning complex ideas into clear, delightful experiences using tools like Figma, Sketch, and the Adobe Creative Suite, and I bring a calm, collaborative approach to every project.
