About me
Hi, I’m Akkshaya.
I’m a techie at heart, and I love exploring products—not just how they work, but the thinking behind them. I’m fascinated by how the people who built them imagine their users, understand their needs, and solve problems in creative ways. Over the years, I’ve worked in programming, technical sales, product marketing, and product management, and those experiences have shaped how I see the world.
I also spend a lot of time reflecting on my own choices, beliefs, and limitations, trying to see things through a different lens. Spirituality plays a big part in keeping me grounded and helping me find meaning in everything I do. In addition to all things tech, I also write about these reflections here on my blog.
SaaS Spotlight on YouTube
On my YouTube channel, SaaS Spotlight, I review the UX and onboarding flows of SaaS apps, offering insights for product teams and enthusiasts alike.
I also host a Quick reviews segment—bite-sized takes on delightful and refreshing SaaS tools I’ve come across. Whether you’re looking for in-depth analysis or quick inspiration, there’s something for you.
Mentorship
Beyond work, I mentor aspiring professionals in product management, marketing, and sales on ADPList.
Noteworthy moments
One of my proudest highlights? My blog post on note-taking apps trended #1 on Hacker News for over 8 hours, sparking incredible conversations with the HN community.
