Design shaped how I think.

Design shaped how I think.

I’m Partho, a Creative Director and Product Manager blending motion, strategy, and UX to build AI-powered platforms that work and look good doing it. Over 5+ years, I’ve shipped tools that range from interactive dashboards and investor decks to 3D farm simulations and branded digital platforms.

My path to product management wasn't a straight line. It was a gradual shift from creating designs to creating strategies. Each project taught me something new. Designing interfaces became prototyping experiences became shaping product direction. The creative mindset stayed with me, informing how I approach problems today. I've been fortunate to work at the intersection. Understanding both the pixel-perfect details and the business objectives. Appreciating both the developer's constraints and the user's needs. This perspective helps me build bridges rather than barriers.

I still design. I still iterate. I still animate.

Want to work together or just chat?

From engineering simulations to product strategy, my career has been built on seeing connections others miss and turning complex challenges into elegant solutions.

Open to Collaborate

I occasionally take on side projects that are thoughtful, purpose-driven, and creatively engaging. If you're working on something that needs both product sense and design sensibility, I’d love to hear more.

Let’s talk if:

You need a strategic partner.

You value clarity, collaboration, and long-term thinking.

You’re building something new, and care about how it feels and functions.

Services — Where Strategy Meets Design

Product Development & Strategy Consulting

Whether you're shaping an MVP or scaling an existing product, I help early-stage teams and growing products find clarity, define priorities, and bring product thinking to the table.

Branding Design

A strong brand starts with meaning, not just visuals. I work with teams to define how they show up: visually and emotionally, across every touchpoint. It’s about building trust, telling a clear story, and creating design systems that scale.

I'm drawn to teams who believe great products are both meticulously crafted and beautifully designed.
If that sounds like you, we should talk.
