I am a social scientist by training, a proud third-culture individual, polyglot, and global nomad. I am comfortable navigating ambiguity from San Francisco to Dakar, and Juba to Karachi. I'm big into design thinking and how it can transform the development and aid industries toward solving real world challenges in direct partnership with communities being served.

Mahrukh 'Maya'’s interest in Service Design

I love service design because it combines putting forth empathy as a cornerstone for both the private and social sector, as well as providing the tools and processes needed to stimulate innovation.
