MS Student, Human Factors in Information Design @ Bentley University | Bridging Design, Data & Emerging Tech
I am currently pursuing a Master’s in Human Factors in Information Design at Bentley University, with a B.S. in Bioengineering and Data Science concentration from the University of Washington. My passion lies at the intersection of UX/UI design, human factors research, and data science, where I apply human-centered principles to create intuitive, impactful experiences. I am particularly interested in wearable technology, AR/VR experience design, AI and human-AI collaboration, cognitive workload, and usability testing. My background includes hands-on projects such as leading usability research on Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) at Philips Healthcare, validating ECG algorithms by classifying over 2,700 recordings, and studying neural activity in sensor-driven systems. These experiences have strengthened my skills in human factors research, data analysis, and designing user-centered solutions. You can view examples of my work in my portfolio here: https://neharamana.framer.website/ Interested in connecting with forward-thinking teams focused on creating meaningful, user-centered experiences.
