Hi, I'm Tanya Gurung, a graduate in Human Computer Interaction (HCI) at UT Austin and aspiring an Product Designer and Product Manager passionate about creating user-centered experiences that make a difference.

I grew up in the beautiful Himalayas of India, which sparked my love for exploring new places. As an Indian who speaks Nepali as my mother tongue, I navigate the nuances of cultural identity, something that shapes my perspective as a designer.

Before transitioning to UX, I worked as an Interior Designer for two years. That experience taught me the power of thoughtful design, and I realized my passion extended beyond physical spaces- I wanted to create meaningful experiences in the digital world too.

When I'm not deep in design work, you'll find me organizing my space, exploring the city, trying (and sometimes failing) to maintain a gym routine, and actively searching for my next opportunity on LinkedIn.
