A journey of design, technology, and human connection

Hi again, With a passion for creating intuitive, human-centered, and impactful digital experiences, my journey in design and technology has been shaped by curiosity, creativity, and a desire to bridge the gap between people and technology.

My journey in design

From the shores of Sri Lanka to the Nordic north

Originally from the beautiful island of Sri Lanka, I now call Finland my home. The contrast between these two places; the warmth of the tropics and the crisp, serene beauty of the Nordics has influenced my approach to design. I believe in simplicity, functionality, and aesthetics that serve a purpose.

A foundation rooted in tech, strategy and human insight

My academic background, including a Bachelor’s (Hons) degree in IT with a specialization in Software Engineering, an MSc in Strategic Marketing, and a current MSc in Human-Technology Interaction, gives me a unique ability to balance user needs, technical feasibility, and business objectives.

With over 5+ years of professional experience, I currently work as a Lead Product Designer at SuntechIT Global, a global software development and consulting company, where I lead design initiatives for in-house products/services and for global partners.

When I'm not designing

Beyond pixels and prototypes

Design is a huge part of my life, but when I’m not designing, you’ll likely find me exploring nature trails, enjoying movies, diving into books, or engaging in strategic board games.

Above all, I’m passionate about helping those in need. As a founding member of Nuwara Api Charity Organization in Sri Lanka, voluntary member in Tampere Missio, and the Finnish Red Cross (Suomen Punainen Risti) in Finland, I strive to make a difference in my community.

Thanks for visiting.

I’m just one message away. Whether it’s a collaboration, a question, or just a friendly hello, I’d love to hear from you.
