ME
Hi! I’m Tanisha, a Product Designer and Manager based in Melbourne with a rich background in fintech.
Growing up in Sri Lanka and now living in Australia, I draw from a cultural blend that fuels my creativity. My journey began in the performing arts, where I immersed myself in Kandyan dance and theater, before transitioning into software engineering.
Now, I focus on creating customer-centric solutions in the fintech space, most recently leading UI/UX for a B2B card issuing platform. I’m passionate about merging creativity with technology and express myself through dance, yoga, and painting.
MY APPROACH
I believe in the power of conscious creation and genuine connection. My design philosophy centers on user-centered design, where understanding user needs through research and feedback is key.
Clients can expect a collaborative process, as I work closely with teams to ensure our solutions are both innovative and practical. I leverage data-driven insights to inform design decisions and embrace rapid prototyping for continuous improvement.
Accessibility and inclusivity are at the heart of my work, allowing me to create fintech solutions that resonate with diverse users. Ultimately, I strive to align design strategies with business goals, fostering meaningful engagement and driving positive change.
Fintech
With a solid foundation in product design and management, I have extensive experience in the fintech sector. Most recently, I served as the Product UI/UX Lead at Yondr Money, where I drove the design strategy for a B2B card issuing platform.
My journey includes developing open banking solutions, personal finance management tools, and financial advice automation.
My ongoing Harvard FinTech certification deepens my understanding of disruptive technologies, including machine learning, AI, blockchain, and cryptocurrencies. I am dedicated to leveraging my technical expertise and creative insights to drive innovation and enhance user engagement in this fast-evolving industry.
CREATIVE
Modalities.
Paintings
Throughout my journey, I have always prioritized multiple modalities of creative expression.
I believe the amalgamation of these experiences fuels my problem-solving abilities and enriches my perspective.
By extension, I find being a certified yoga teacher, I look to embrace mindfulness and balance, which informs my approach to life, creativity and work.
