Sneh loves building products and teams and has been fortunate to be part of some of the most interesting organizations where she got to witness both insane growth and successful acquisition.

Director, Experience Design

Solving experience design problems for over 15 years across multiple industries and organizational setups, Akanksha has gathered rich experiences in designing for Indian as well as global consumers. The varied experiences have helped her understand the key nuances and differences in market needs and develop her intuition to design successful user-centric products. Some of the key industries and problem spaces she has worked on include India real estate digital products for buyers, agents, and owners, used goods marketplaces, ecommerce digital products, fintech, and payments.

Akanksha is a big proponent of driving positive business and customer outcomes via data-driven design and hence believes in a balanced approach towards launching incrementally better experiences in the market aligned towards a high-level vision, which enables learning and failing fast. She believes that the superpower of any designer is to create beautiful intuitive experiences that truly align perfectly with an inherent job that the user is trying to accomplish.

About the company

Expedia Group


Why Expedia Group?

Expedia Group, Inc. brands power travel for everyone, everywhere through our global platform. Driven by the core belief that travel is a force for good, we help people experience the world in new ways and build lasting connections. We provide industry-leading technology solutions to fuel partner growth and success, while facilitating memorable experiences for travelers. Expedia Group’s three flagship consumer brands include: Expedia®, Hotels.com®, and Vrbo®.


Open culture, open world

We're a diverse community, and we share a vision: to create the products, platforms, and experiences the rest of the industry looks to for inspiration. We’re not doing this for its own sake. We’re doing it because it makes a positive difference to every single traveler we serve. Expedia Group is a place where everyone can feel safe and empowered. We’re incredibly proud of the open culture we’ve built, and we’re united behind the belief that travel is a force for good. The experiences we create bridge divides and broaden horizons – making the world a better, more open place.

Our work of driving inclusion at Expedia Group and designing a more equitable workforce would not be possible without our Inclusion Business Groups (IBGs), a subcategory of our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs—the commonly used industry term), who are specifically dedicated to systemic inclusion of historically excluded identities. These employee-led groups provide spaces for our employees to connect through lived experiences and cultivate a sense of belonging and, furthermore, their charters guide them to empower their members, collaborate across intersectional identities within their communities, and promote allyship to all employees across the company.

At Expedia Group, there are eight Inclusion Business Groups:

  • Latinx Education And Development
  • Asian Community at Expedia
  • Ability Inclusion Movement, PRIDE (LGBTQIA+)
  • Women at Expedia Learning and Leading
  • Black Expedia Allied Movement
  • Expedia Veterans Friends and Family
  • Indigenous Diversity Expedians and Allies

Impact & Sustainability

Expedia Group’s Open World™ global social impact and sustainability strategy is grounded in the pursuit of three pillars – access for underserved travelers, economic advancement for communities underrepresented in the travel industry, and a more prosperous planet for generations to come.

Open World combines Expedia Group’s mission, purpose, and values with its traveler-centric mindset to help bridge divides and strengthen connections.
