Designing tomorrow's experiences, today.
Taniya Khangura, UX Designer
I'm a Creative Thinker, Storyteller, and Passionate Designer with a Bachelor of Design who creates skillful and human-centred design solutions.
Inspired by the world around me, I design experiences with empathy and advocate for the voice of the user. Through research-backed data, I deliver designs with elegance and functionality.
My Design Mantra
Research
Research
Define the need. I start every project by understanding the challenges and issues. I empathize with the people I am designing for, leaving biases aside and digging deeper until we find an insight that sparks an idea.

Wacky Idea Creation
No limitations. There is always something to learn from someone else. Balancing open-minded thinking while staying on track with the users' needs and business goals is crucial to creating the next best thing.
Testing & Iteration
Testing & Iteration
Creating functional and engaging experiences requires input from those using the product or service. Iterating is essential for aligning with their needs and also for easier integration of new ideas.

I'm Taniya Khangura.
Communications and Thought Leadership Intern at Alectra Utilities ⚡️
Using human-centred design principles, I develop digital experiences and contribute to thought leadership initiatives at Alectra's GRE&T Centre, focusing on AI and e-mobility projects to advance innovation.
I recognize that I reside on traditional treaty lands and territory of the Attiwonderonk (Neutral), Wendake-Nionwentsïo, Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, Anishinabewaki ᐊᓂᔑᓈᐯᐗᑭ, Ho-de-no-sau-nee-ga (Haudenosaunee), and Mississauga people. I also acknowledge that these nations have lived here for thousands of years, and continue to live on these lands. Recognizing that territory acknowledgements are just one part of dismantling colonial structures, I commit to my role in reconciliation and to continue learning more about the Indigenous history of these peoples and nations all over Canada.
