Designing for gamers and PC enthusiasts
AMD's Radeon Adrenalin Software is an all-in-one desktop application built for PC gamers and enthusiasts. It gives users direct control over their GPU, from performance tuning and driver updates to in-game overlays and display settings, eliminating the need to manage these tools separately across multiple applications.
I was able to work with such talented product managers, designers, and engineers.
Thank you to everyone who has made this internship experience so special!

It was a great way to show how
everything actually feels in motion, beyond just static screens. Seeing the level of engagement also gave me confidence that the experience was intuitive and resonated with people.
