hi,
i'm saachi

Originally from outside of southern Phoenix, I graduated with a degree in Product Design with a minor in Sports Business at the University of Oregon. My work is driven by curiosity, experimentation, and the belief that design should empower the user.

​

Much of that mindset came from my early education rooted in project-based learning, where building rockets, wind tunnels, and sculptures sparked a habit of taking things apart to understand how they worked. Athletics also shaped much of this perspective; swimming and boxing taught me how gear becomes an extension of the body, and how thoughtful details can transform performance. That foundation informs a design ethos rooted in inclusivity, function, and innovation.

​

As a designer, I’m inspired by organic forms and unorthodox color combinations, blending technical rigor with expressive storytelling.

​

Outside of design, I find energy in house music, Coperni, postcards, riding horses, and large bodies of water. My personal interests find their way across sport, fashion, and culture.

​

I am currently a Core Footwear Color Designer at Nike in Beaverton, OR!
