Hey, my name is Shivani Toshniwal. I am actively exploring the intersections between business, design, and technology with a focus on product.

Currently, I am pursuing my Master’s in Integrated Product Design at the University of Pennsylvania. Previously, I worked as a multidisciplinary designer on all things digital.

My practice combines creative ambition with strategic thinking to create purpose-driven solutions.  

Drawing on approximately nine years of experience in the arts, professionally trained Indian Classical Bharatanatyam dancer and about three years in Digital Design. I possess a critical and sensitive eye for visual expression and excel at cross-functional collaboration with multiple stakeholders, both internal and external.

“Shivani was an outstanding team player. She was always willing to jump in and work hard on whatever digital project was needed - all with a positive attitude. She also helped with competitive analysis and A | B testing. She is truly a great addition to any team!”

Hannah Coffman,
Director of eCommerce at Amika

“Shivani joined our tiny, remote team and was able to hit the ground running. She's endlessly talented, a quick learner and great collaborator. Being a newcomer to the team, I was excited to see how she interpreted our brand guide and pushed it, creating a look for our creative that we're now able to implement across our channels. She was excited to own the redesign of our social content and came to the table with ideas beyond just her immediate deliverables. It was such a pleasure to have her be a part of our team!”

Co-Founder & Creative Director of Made of Millions

It is all about having a holistic approach. Convinced that creativity happens across disciplines, I have the best time collaborating with peers with different skill sets. 

My unique skills bring a blend of business, design, and technology. I have worked in various setting including the non-profit sector, in-house and agency environment.

I have experience in visual and interaction design, UX/UI design, information architecture, storytelling, documentation, product research, design strategy, usability testing, and QA.
