UI designer passionate about typography and design systems
Hello! I am Shankar, and this is my personal corner on the internet. This website serves as my blog, portfolio and more.
I spend my time on one of these three activities - hanging out with friends, browsing through type specimens or consuming media (TV or books).
Lastly, I'm a UI designer at Google working on Gmail. My job doesn't define me as a person, but I'm thankful for what I have.
