Nice to meet you ♡

Hi, I’m Sneha, somewhere between a curious problem-solver and a designer who cares deeply about how things feel to use.

Hi, I’m Sneha, somewhere between a curious problem-solver and a designer who cares deeply about how things feel to use.

I approach design from the user’s point of view first. I’m interested in how things work, why they sometimes do not, and what makes an experience feel smooth and meaningful. Design, to me, is a process of constant iteration and adapting to new inventions, always learning and reshaping ideas along the way.


I am a recent computer science for digital media graduate from Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, with prior UI/UX design internship experience at Audi AG in Ingolstadt, where I learned more deeply how strong design comes together in practice.

I think like a user first, then a designer. My process is a mix of curiosity, empathy, and a little bit of stubbornness to get things just right. One size fits all is a myth, and I believe excellent designs emerge from constant learning, iteration, and adaptation to what technology brings us next.

I am pursuing a Master’s degree in Computer Science for Digital Media at Bauhaus University Weimar, with prior UI/UX design internship experience at Audi AG in Ingolstadt.

Master's Thesis

Subtitles in Language Learning: Effects of placement and Highlighting on Gaze, Mental Effort, and Comprehension

What happens when a seemingly simple UI decision changes the way people learn? This question inspired my master's thesis, where I explored the split attention effect in dual-subtitle video interfaces.


Using eye-tracking technology, I investigated how subtitle placement and synchronized word highlighting influence visual attention, cognitive effort, comprehension, and overall user experience.


The study reveals how small interface choices can shape the way users process information, offering insights for the design of more effective and user-centered learning experiences.
