Cyrus is a UX designer, creative technologist, and maker. They translate complex systems into accessible experiences.
6 years ago, I started my career in UX Design.
It started in the health-tech world, doing UX research for Meta, Kaiser, and UCSF on real-world problems affecting vulnerable healthcare populations.
With teams of 3-4 co-researchers at UC Berkeley, we conducted qualitative interviews and quantitative literature reviews and surveys. We presented our findings on the impact of social-media on health misinformation during COVID to Meta. We also shared a report of suggestions to make telehealth systems more accessible for the elderly and disabled with UCSF and Kaiser.
At IBM, I was the sole UX Designer on many $10M+ enterprise technology transformation projects for large companies in the technology, aerospace, and oil and gas industries.
