Hi, I’m DharaneDharan Kaliaperumal Babu
Product Designer with experience building AI-driven hiring systems and scalable B2B workflows. Background in visual design and filmmaking brings a strong narrative approach to product thinking, system design, and user behaviour. But more than this I like to live my life to the fullest.
I want to see how much life I can fit into my life.
I want to see things.
Go places. Meet strange and wonderful people. Fall in love with ideas, cities, villages, people, trees and more. Make things with my hands. Get lost somewhere I’ve never been. Run until my legs hurt. Climb something that looks too difficult. Sit by the sea and do absolutely nothing.
I want to keep saying yes to experiences that make me feel more alive.
I don’t want my life to be measured only by what I achieved. I want to remember how it felt to be here.
I want to stay curious about what I don’t understand.
I’ve always been drawn to the stories that sit outside the obvious. People who aren’t heard enough, communities that are overlooked, histories that get simplified, and realities that rarely make it into the mainstream.
I want to look closer, question what I’m told, listen to different perspectives, and keep learning without assuming I already know the answer. When I learn something worth knowing, I want to pass it on through conversations, stories, films, writing, or whatever medium makes the idea easier to understand.
Because for me, seeking truth isn’t just about knowing more. It’s about helping more people know, question, and understand.
I design. I film. But that’s not the whole story.
Right now, I design products and make films. I enjoy both because they let me stay curious and turn that curiosity into something tangible.
But I hope I never become so attached to either that I stop exploring everything else.
There are too many things I haven’t tried, places I haven’t seen, people I haven’t met and questions I haven’t asked.
So design and film are important to me. They’re just not the whole story.
