WHO AM I?

I’m Atul Kochath Anilkumar, a designer who believes in the quiet impact of thoughtful design. What began as a passion for graphic storytelling has evolved into a purpose-driven journey in UX.

Growing up in Qatar with roots in Kerala, India and now designing from the U.S., I’ve been shaped by cultures that taught me to observe deeply and design with care.

My work focuses on clarity, empathy, and usability, whether I’m simplifying complex processes or reimagining digital experiences across industries.

I strive to create design that not only works well, but feels right for the people who use it every day.
