Profile: https://flows.cv/vikitha

I’m a Senior Product Designer with deep experience in AI-powered tools and enterprise workflows, currently focused on shaping how teams interact with complex systems through intuitive, scalable design. At McKinsey, I led the design and end-to-end product execution of large-scale generative AI solutions, from defining vision and rapid prototyping to delivering multi-platform experiences that drive adoption and measurable value.

I specialize in taking products from 0 → MVP quickly, blending workflow research, rapid prototyping, and practical UX patterns that support real user needs. My work spans conversational AI UX, product strategy, and high-impact design systems.
