Anna Paramita

Professional background: Senior UX/UI Designer at Open Universities Australia

I am a curious learner and empathetic listener. I thrive in solving user problems through design.

What’s your motivation for becoming a DiR?

I have been fortunate to have had excellent mentorship and support in my career. So knowing how much of a positive impact a good mentor can make, I really wanted to take the opportunity to share my knowledge and pay it forward this time.

What are your hobbies and interests?

Film, photography, and keeping my house plants alive 🙂

One book or movie you’d recommend to read or watch to all your mentees?

Depends on what they want to learn. Most recently, on the topic of finding confidence as an introverted UX designer, I recommend the book ‘Quiet’ by Susan Cain (although it’s not specific to UX).
