Bridging pretty and possible.

Hi, I'm Kimberly, a frontend engineer in Mumbai with a designer's eye. For 3+ years I've been building production web apps in Angular and TypeScript, taking work from the Figma file to responsive, animated UI that talks to real APIs.

01 — About

Design and code, one person, no gaps in between.

I started as a designer. Then I learned to build what I designed.

I'm a frontend engineer at Home First Finance. I build the screens customers use, like loan calculators and application forms, and connect them to the systems behind them.

Because I do both, my designs are easy to build, and what I build looks like the design. I care about apps that work well on phones, are easy for everyone to use, and feel polished.

Off the clock: music is my daily therapy, I read for the good stories, and I'm an unapologetic Marvel fan.

Frontend engineering

I turn designs into fast, working web apps with Angular and TypeScript.

UI/UX design

I design screens, prototypes, icons and logos in Figma.

Motion & assets

I make animations and app store visuals that bring products to life.

02 — Experience

The road so far.

04 — How I work

From idea to live, without the handoffs.

  1. 01

    Understand

    First I learn who it's for, what it needs to do, and what a good result looks like.

  2. 02

    Design

    I sketch the layout, then design polished screens in Figma that are ready to build.

  3. 03

    Build

    I turn the design into clean code that works on every device, and test it properly.

  4. 04

    Launch & refine

    We go live. Then I check speed and Google visibility, and polish the final details.
