TANISHA WIJESINGHE FOUNDER OF AGNI
Strategic Fintech Design & UX Consultant - The AGNI Method
This is my portfolio.
MY STORY
I help fintech companies achieve market leadership through UX transformation that competitors cannot replicate.
The AGNI Method: Co-creation framework balancing Business Viability vs Human Desirability, Global Innovation vs Cultural Adaptation, Technical Feasibility vs Experience Design.
Most consultants design FOR you. I co-create WITH you.
I'm Tanisha, founder of AGNI. My journey from open banking engineer to strategic fintech consultant taught me that features don't drive adoption-seamless, culturally-adapted experiences do.
Growing up between Australia and Sri Lanka showed me how thoughtful financial design can be the difference between poverty and opportunity. Financial access shouldn't be limited by poor user experience.
My mission: Transform financial experiences that genuinely improve people's lives through Conscious Creation.

BEYOND FINTECH
Originally from Sri Lanka, my foundation in performing arts—Kandyan dance, theater, choir—continues to inspire my design philosophy. I teach theater and storytelling through the Sudhaar Foundation, integrating creative practices that inform my approach to human-centered financial design.
I help fintech companies design user experiences that drive market leadership. My focus is on digital banking, payments, and financial platforms that need to balance regulatory compliance with exceptional usability.
The AGNI Method: Co-creation that transforms your platform vision into market-leading reality.
MY STORY
I'm Tanisha, founder of AGNI. My journey from open banking engineer to strategic fintech consultant taught me that features don't drive adoption - seamless, culturally-adapted experiences do.
This drive to create meaningful impact is why I split my time between Australia and Sri Lanka, working on financial challenges across different markets—with a particular passion for emerging markets where design can expand access, opportunity, and inclusion.
My mission: Transform financial experiences that genuinely improve people's lives through Conscious Creation.

Originally from Sri Lanka, my foundation in performing arts - Kandyan dance, theater, choir - continues to inspire my design philosophy. I teach theater and storytelling through the Sudhaar Foundation, integrating creative practices that inform my approach to human-centered financial design.
When I'm not designing fintech experiences, you'll find me teaching mindfulness and self-embodiment workshops, or practicing yoga (certified instructor). I also own a small paddy field back home in Sri Lanka - a gentle reminder that the best systems, whether financial or agricultural, thrive when they work with natural rhythms, not against them.
