Mija Sanders, PhD
Applied Anthropologist | UX Research | Organizational Development

I am an applied researcher and organizational strategist with a PhD in Middle Eastern Studies and 10+ years of experience working at the intersection of human behavior, systems change, and design. I help organizations understand their people — whether through UX research that improves digital products, or organizational development work that builds more effective, human-centered teams and institutions. My background spans international fieldwork with refugee populations, enterprise UX research for Fortune 500 companies, and program design in humanitarian and educational contexts.
