Hey there, I’m Nalaprasad

Hey there, I’m Nalaprasad

Started designing in 2018 between lectures and late-night coffee. Turned a scrappy portfolio into a 4-year freelance sprint, 100+ clients in 10+ countries as a brand identity designer.

Hopped to Cognizant to shape CAT Productivity for Caterpillar, untangling tricky workflows for a year. Deriv then flew me to Dubai as a Product Designer; three years on, I have touched almost every product, earned a senior title, and led Deriv GO, a native options trading app.

Now I am steering Deriv P2P to V2, owning end-to-end UX across web and responsive. I turn complexity into clarity, build patterns that scale, and ship with cross-functional teams that move fast.
