About

Udita Awasthi
Open to Opportunities
Freelance & Full Time

Research-led design
for complex systems.

As Lead UX Designer at CitiusTech, my work sits at the intersection of human behaviour and system complexity. I work across the full design cycle, from UX strategy and early discovery through to high-fidelity prototypes and live design systems, making sure every decision has a clear rationale behind it.

Most of my work has been in the US healthcare domain, where I have helped build EHR platforms, care management solutions, and life sciences research products. I understand the weight of designing for clinical environments and the precision that comes with it.

Outside the screen, I think about how language shapes interface understanding, and why the best design often goes completely unnoticed by the people it serves. I hold a Bachelor of Design in Communication Design from Symbiosis Institute of Design, Pune.

Off the Clock

I also paint.

A small, ongoing side practice in acrylics: mostly tiny canvases, pixel-style portraits, and the occasional experiment in glass paint. It keeps the same eye that shapes interfaces busy with colour, texture, and things that don't need to be usable.
