Nice to meet you!
Nice to meet you!
Hey, I’m Manya! I’m a UX professional with 2+ years of experience based in Seattle, currently pursuing my MS in Human-Centered Design & Engineering at the University of Washington. I’ve worked at Accenture’s Data & AI Studio, where I designed enterprise tools that powered decision-making for Fortune 500 companies. Whether it’s designing for impact at scale or diving into the nuances of accessibility, I love solving complex problems through thoughtful design.
My work is rooted in the belief that accessibility isn’t a feature, it’s a mindset that drives better design for everyone. Whether it's crafting adaptive systems, improving digital equity, or advocating for accessibility best practices, I care deeply about making technology truly inclusive.
Beyond work, you’ll probably find me getting lost in a new city with my camera, and an iced latte ( even in subzero weather ❄️). PS: I am also crazy about dogs!
My Teammates!

I had the opportunity to work with Manya at Accenture on a significant website redesign. She is a quick learner, enjoys working in a team, and offers help with various project tasks. I really enjoyed working with her; she was a wonderful instructor and partner as I learned about UI, UX, and Figma. I think any company wins in having a person like her on their team.

Fun Fact: This photograph has been featured by MoMA NYC.
Spent lockdown becoming obsessed with astro photography.
Always capturing the road not taken (best in fall and winters)
