About Maro Anuyah, Ph.D.
Design researcher at Microsoft
I am a Design Researcher with a PhD in Computer Science and an emphasis on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence (AI/ML). My work sits at the intersection of technology, research, and people’s lived experiences, from AI-powered systems and accessibility to collaboration tools and underserved communities.
I have spent the past several years conducting qualitative and mixed-methods research across both academia and industry, working closely with designers, engineers, PMs, and stakeholders to shape user-centered products and experiences.
As a mentor, I’m happy to support researchers, students, and early-career professionals navigating UX/design research, HCI research, academia, industry transitions, publications, and research storytelling.
