Ray Sharma

As an accomplished problem-solver, I am deeply committed to motivating and inspiring individuals to succeed personally and professionally. With over 23 years of experience in design work, I have had the privilege of working with Toptal, where I played a key role in expanding their design offerings. I have consulted with hundreds of clients, matching them with the top 3% of international Researchers, UX & UI Designers, Motion Designers, VR/AR, and Design Leaders. By attending all designer interviews with clients, I have gained invaluable insights into what clients look for in designers. Moreover, I have mentored designers, helping them succeed through their portfolios, job applications, interviews, engagements, and personal growth.

I am a multi-award-winning, multidisciplinary experience designer with extensive experience in various fields, including enterprises, B2B, B2C, agencies, and startups. Throughout my career, I have worked with many renowned organizations such as Toptal, Microsoft, Samsung, Lenovo, Deutsche Bank, Fidelity (UK), Digitas LBI, Finastra, Talk Talk, British Gas, and many others.

My experience includes leading organizations and teams, managing products and projects, and providing hands-on design leadership. I have expertise in design thinking strategies, qualitative research, UX, interaction design, UI, and visual and graphic design. I have delivered solutions for clients across various domains, including VR, AR, web, mobile, cloud, and connected devices.
