Background

I'm Barsa. Wondering why my home page has rain? That's what my name means! Rain. My mom always tells me that I was born on a heavyyy rainy day, thats why she named me ‘Barsa’. I am from a small country, Nepal.

Education

I did my Undergraduate in Computer Engineering at Tribhuvan University in Nepal and completed my Masters Degree from Indiana University in Human-computer Interaction.

I aim to make inclusive and accessible design solutions that give everyone a memorable experience. I focus on empowering people by joining the gap between people and technology.

Design Journey

Before I came to US, I was working as a Senior UX/UI Designer at Expresiv Studios. I realized my passion for human-centered design during my undergrad final year project, when my team built an ecommerce platform. I realized that I was more diverted towards how users would view and interact with the system.

Continuing what I enjoyed and loved, I decided to explore the user research principles and techniques more. So, I decided to join Indiana University. Also, I was interested in exploring more opportunities in the US since many projects and clients I worked with were from the United States.

My Resume

Current Work

Also, I am working with Dr. Aqueasha Martin Hammond as a UX Researcher and Designer and designing a collaborative health tracking tool to improve cardiovascular health among African-Americans, a Google Award recipient Project.
