Hi, I'm Niraj, a digital designer and artist wrecking havoc in Melbourne, Australia.
In late 2021 my family and I put down roots in Melbourne. Before that I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for 16 years.
I was at Facebook for 3.5 years, where I designed a world-class hiring platform and candidate experience, and in particular redesigned their candidate evaluation products and process. I designed consumer experiences at Nerdwallet and Indiegogo, and built online communities for artists, bands, and record labels at Sparkart. I also built Issues, a //now defunct// iOS app that made comics discoverable to new readers.
I'm a creator at heart. I own and design Lake Merritt Rebels, a brand/shop that pays homage to heavy metal and the darkest arts.
