Hi, I’m Disha —

Director · Brand and Design · Plivo

I simplify complex products and build the human + AI teams that ship them.

Thirteen years in B2B. I designed a voice AI platform for enterprise buyers, built features that added $3.6M in annual revenue, and now lead product design and brand at Plivo.

Track record

  • 1 → 7 built design teams from the ground up
  • $3.6M increase in ARR
  • 3 + 4 currently running a hybrid human + AI team
Approach

Humans and AI agents, one team.

Humans own strategy and judgment. Agents own throughput and consistency. I run a hybrid brand team at Plivo. The brief is the interface; nothing ships without human review.

Writing

Thinking out loud.

Long-form notes on design leadership, AI product strategy, and the messy middle where product meets brand.
