Interface Design

My approach to interface design is about turning complexity into clarity. I focus on creating interfaces that feel intuitive while reducing cognitive load, shaping clear hierarchy, and aligning interactions with how people actually work. My work emphasizes meaningful feedback, iterative improvement, and consistency across experiences so users can move faster with confidence.

Examples

The following examples highlight my approach to designing complex, data-dense interfaces. Each focuses on clarity, decision-making, and usability in real-world operational systems. Click on them to view them larger.

A single operational view for high-stakes decision-making.

This interface brings flight activity, disruptions, and operational context into a single, scannable workspace for airline operations teams. The design prioritizes information hierarchy, visual grouping, and geospatial context so controllers can quickly understand what is happening, what is changing, and where attention is needed. Real-time updates, alert prioritization, and layered map views support fast analysis during time-critical situations.

An autonomous cargo drone control and monitoring interface.

This command-and-control interface supports operators supervising autonomous cargo drone missions across planning, flight, and ground operations. Using progressive disclosure, the layout separates mission state, system health, and route planning into clear functional zones, helping operators quickly validate status and intervene when needed. The map-based Taxi-in Route Builder translates spatial intent into executable routes, reducing errors and supporting confident human oversight in safety-critical workflows.

For this design, I was given the Meritorious Invention Award from Jeppesen leadership.

Designing operational awareness in three dimensions.

This spatial interface explores how airline operations data can be organized in a mixed reality environment. Instead of compressing everything into a single screen, key workflows are separated into spatial zones for flight status, crew alerts, aircraft health, and weather. The layout is designed to reduce visual congestion, support rapid context switching, and lower cognitive load during high-pressure operational decision making.

For my work in spatial design and immersive interfaces, I won a Jeppesen-wide hackathon and was given the Digital Solutions Special Inventor Award.

Making network-wide risk visible at a glance.

This dashboard - in production at India’s largest airline - provides a comparative, time-based view of operational risk across multiple airports. Weather advisories, arrival and departure volumes, and disruption probability are aligned on a shared timeline, allowing controllers to quickly scan for patterns and emerging risk. Interactive drill-downs reveal affected flights and forecasts without overwhelming the primary view, supporting both rapid triage and deeper investigation when needed.
