ABOUT ME

Aakarsha Sharma

Born in India, as a teen, art and craft sparked my visual storytelling passion. Bachelors of Design degree gave me foundation, and digital design showed new creative depths. My journey into design started as a Graphic enthusiast to web designer, promoted to Lead Designer and served as Design lead in another venture for years.

8 years later, I moved to Hamburg. Here, with the beautiful views by the canals, I craft web, app and brand solutions for tech companies to shine and landed to me my desired current position. My portfolio spans a variety of sectors, including SaaS, Edtech, Fintech, E-commerce, and Data Analytic.
