Hello! My name is Anshu, I’m a principal product designer & a yogi based out of San Francisco.
Currently, I’m leading the generative AI squad at Yahoo Mail. Before that, I led product design initiatives at Sprinklr.

A little about my work
I'm all about making cool stuff that people love by understanding user behavior, employing compelling storytelling, and leveraging AI with ethical considerations and inclusive design. Right now I'm leading the Generative AI squad for Yahoo Mail across platforms
Before that, I led the charge at Verizon Media to create OneSearch, an encrypted search engine. Oh, and I had this gig at a super cool enterprise startup, Sprinklr, where I witnessed the startup transform into a unicorn in a very short period. It was my first job and I learned the art of balancing business goals and tech challenges while keeping the user at the heart of it all.
