Spoorthi Cherivirala

Hello!

I'm Spoorthi Cherivirala, a junior at Carnegie Mellon University majoring in Design and Computer Science. Throughout the years, I've been a fan of drawing – both digitally and traditionally – bothering my pet cat named Helios, playing board games, solving jigsaw puzzles, and participating in a variety of MOOCs. I aspire to apply human-centered design to societal projects globally, ranging from products to aid day-to-day activities for the disabled to VR environments promoting accessibility. Pursuing computer science to complement design in my degree, I'm interested in exploring the intersection of technology with everyday experiences.

​

This summer, I interned as a UX Designer at Amazon. In the past, I have interned as a UX Designer at Mediascience, a neuromarketing research company with high-profile clients including Google and TikTok, and as a data visualizer at Biomotivate, a tech startup developing a platform to aid in Substance Abuse Treatment. I have also worked as a guest artist at Texas Children's Hospital, ran my own non-profit art business, and held several art teaching and tutoring positions at galleries and schools.
