Ramisa Murshed is...

...a user experience and digital product designer focused on creating inclusive technologies to mitigate disparities in access to information. I'm based in Atlanta, GA, where I received my Master's degree in Human-Computer Interaction from Georgia Tech.

I’ve refined my craft at various sized companies and organizations, like Amazon and CarMax, in industries like e-commerce, the nonprofit sector, and the music industry. I'm currently looking for my next role - if you're hiring, let's chat!

I'm also a...

...public yapper.

Another one of my creative outlets is writing and sharing it with others. My love of writing has made me a much more effective communicator, especially with non-technical collaborators.

As a Senior Staff Writer and Daily Editor for Bwog, Columbia University’s undergraduate student news blog, I’ve written some serious stuff and some not-so-serious stuff.

I also dabbled in article-writing for Barnard College’s Office of Admissions while I was working as a Student Admissions Representative.

While I was studying abroad, I wrote semi-regular blog posts to keep friends and family updated on my whereabouts and activities.

...language enthusiast.

I love learning languages and learning about other cultures. Through my cross-cultural experience, I’ve been able to learn so much about others and gain empathy and understanding for diverse voices. These experiences have helped me gain a better understanding of differences that exist across cultures, which I incorporate into my design work.

In 2019, I received the Critical Language Scholarship from the U.S. Department of State to study Korean in an intensive, immersive environment in Gwangju, South Korea.

I later became an alumni ambassador for the program, promoting international language education programs across colleges and universities as well as advocating for funding for study abroad programs to senators and representatives.

For my Master’s thesis, I designed a tool to help heritage speakers of Mandarin better learn and retain their heritage language and culture.

I’ve also done some Korean translation work, amassing millions of views on videos that I’ve worked on.

...lifelong learner.

Learning is my favorite thing to do, and I don’t think I’d be where I am now if it wasn’t. Being a designer is about constant growth and improvement, and that’s why I love it so much. I’m always itching to take on new skills, learn about new ideas and perspectives, and put them into action. I spend every moment wondering what I’ll learn next.
