About me
Hello!! My name is Swapnil Kosarabe. I work at Unity as Product Designer on Cinemachine team. Previously, I designed for Overtone and Cinecast. I live in Boston and really enjoy the summers here.
I graduated as Masters in Human-Computer Interaction at Indiana University, Indianapolis in 2019 . I interned at Microsoft as a Garage Designer in their NERD center at Boston in 2018 where along with 7 other colleagues, we designed a new Cortana skill in the consumer domain.
I am an Architect turned Product designer with 4 years of experience working with startups, as a freelancer, and for student’s association while pursuing my undergraduate degree at Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee.
Outside of work, I enjoy visiting historical sites, participating in paintings and crafts events, designing illustrations and motion designs, learning new tools and cooking new cuisines.
If you need to get in touch or learn more about me feel free to drop an email.
