ANUSHKAA NAVEEN MOHTA

Lead Product Designer & Illustrator.

With 7+ years of design experience, I'm currently shaping the user experience in Director/Monitor at Citrix, working on tools that empower IT admins to troubleshoot, optimise, and deliver seamless digital workspaces.

I don’t just design interfaces, I design clarity in complex systems. My work is driven by curiosity, empathy, and a deep commitment to designing enterprise products that balance intuitive experiences with the depth and robustness professionals depend on.

Design, to me, is about building bridges, between people and the technology they rely on. It’s about understanding complex challenges, asking the right questions, and turning insight into experiences that actually make a difference.

I care about the “why” just as much as the “how.” Whether it’s crafting new flows, refining old ones, or challenging assumptions, I believe thoughtful design has the power to simplify, humanise, and elevate even the most technical products.


People. Process. Purpose.
That’s what grounds me and keeps me excited about what’s next!
