Hi, I’m Pooja Vazirani. I work as a Sr. UX Designer at OneTrust and am pursuing my MBA in Data-Driven Decision Making in Miami, FL. My focus has been to design human-centred, privacy-focused experiences that make complex systems feel seamless, secure, and intuitive.

Previously, I was at Amazon Web Services (AWS), where I led UX for enterprise procurement tools used by thousands of B2B customers. I have also built safety-critical interfaces at Motorola Solutions and crafted inclusive, high-impact designs for the University of Michigan Alumni Association, boosting engagement and cutting support requests by over half.

With a background in Human-Computer Interaction and Computer Science, I am passionate about using design to connect the dots between user needs, business goals, and engineering realities. Whether it’s privacy, accessibility, or feedback systems, I love solving messy problems at the intersection of data, ethics, and usability.

Outside of work, I’m a coffee lover, travel enthusiast, and mentor to early-career designers. I’m excited to be part of Agent Con and connect responsibly and creatively with people who believe in designing for the future.

As a Cloud Solutions Architect at Cloudtech, I design and develop cloud-native applications for customers using AWS serverless technologies.

What happens when you mix relentless drive, academic prowess, and an innate knack for reading people? You get Tara Furiani. She isn't just in the people business—she is the people business. With over two decades of transformative leadership under her belt, Tara shatters the conventional, often stodgy, paradigms of HR and corporate culture, bringing humanity back into the workplace.

Sporting dual Master's degrees in Psychology and Organizational Leadership, Tara's academic mettle is as rock-solid as her real-world chops. Her slew of advanced certifications isn't just for show; it’s her toolkit for crafting highly responsive, agile organizations. She’s been the mastermind behind multiple industry-defining shifts during her 13 years as a Chief People Officer for companies valued over $6 billion and employing more than 10,000 people worldwide.

But let's cut through the corporate jargon: Tara is a people champion. She fights for DEI not just as a buzzword but as a way of life, all the way from boardrooms on Earth to the realms of space, serving on NASA's DEI board. For Tara, equity isn't just a corporate initiative; it's a universal mandate.

Still think she’s all business? Think again. A mother of five and a doting partner, Tara knows the real-world application of work-life balance like no other. She's the driving force of her family and the beating heart of her home, roles she embraces with the same vigor as her corporate undertakings.

If you need further proof, lend an ear to her hit podcast, "Not the HR Lady," where she tackles the industry's stale narratives and offers fresh, often revolutionary, perspectives. And don't be fooled by the exec persona; she can drop a Dr. Dre lyric faster than you can say "organizational change."

When you partner with Tara Furiani, you’re not just getting a consultant or a thought leader. You’re aligning with a living, breathing catalyst for meaningful change—in your organization and in your life. Are you ready?
