Denise Ranghetti do Pilar
Professor of UX Res. @ SCAD
“Pranay brings independent, user-centered research and AI-driven experience prototyping to complex domains. His resourcefulness helped shape SparkUp, which earned 8 Indigo Design Awards, including Gold.
Lauren Slaydon
Manager @ SCADcares
“He brought a reliable, professional, and valuable student perspective to SCADcares. He built a clear Standard Operating Procedure, improved team processes, and created training materials that supported student success and retention. Thoughtful, proactive, and innovative, he made a lasting impact on our operations.”
Mauricio Herrera Manzur
Manager, Researcher @ SCADask
“He has led our award-winning research - The Future of the American Dream, from early ideas to a strong final outcome, bringing clear direction and real ownership to the team. He balances creative thinking with structured execution, communicates with focus, and delivers thoughtful, well-researched work. He is trusted in high-responsibility roles.”
Jevic B.
Client @ Magellan Cx
"One of his biggest strengths is his ability to take complicated logic and make it feel simple. Within his first week he had grasped the fundamentals of data center commissioning and turned those conversations into a functional prototype. He solves the right problem."
Shivali Meenakshi Murali
Collaborator - Design and Research
“Having worked with Pranay across group projects, I have seen his strong work ethic and natural ability to build trust. He helps teammates stay organized, meet deadlines, and feel heard, creating the conditions for people to contribute with confidence.”
SungHan Kim
Service Design Prof. @ SCAD
“He investigates complex problems with both empathy and structure, looking beyond surface observations to understand stakeholder needs and system conditions. His systems thinking is especially valuable at the intersection of AI, new tech, and design.”
Sarah Snook
Sr. Researcher & Writer @ SCADask
“Pranay produces research with clarity of purpose, methodological discipline, and evidence that remains traceable from insight to narrative. He coordinated interviews, trend analysis, and futurecasting while mentoring researchers through tight timelines. His ability to synthesize complex technological signals into useful, communicable insights makes him exceptionally dependable.”
