Malay Vasa
I first met Malay Vasa at Srishti in 2021, and his humility was as obvious as his skill. He's been Principal Product Designer at Diffusion Labs since October 2023, and he has a rare willingness to listen and take on new perspectives alongside the technical and creative work. He moves between design and programming more fluidly than most.
That openness runs through his career, which has climbed from early roles at Scalar to principal designer. His open-source work through Google Summer of Code says something too: he's skilled, and he's invested in other people's growth. I'm keen to see where his appetite for learning takes him next.
