# Riya Vora, MS > UX Research Moderator @Apple Location: Sunnyvale, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/riyavorams My journey began with a Google-certified UX Bootcamp, where I designed my first beta app, Bakestock. This project solidified my passion for UX design and led me to pursue an MS in User Experience at Arizona State University, where I’ve deepened my skills in design, research, and user-centered problem-solving. ​ Last summer, I interned at Avoma, Inc., an AI-powered SaaS startup, where I had the opportunity to design and prototype a new feature for their platform. Working at the intersection of AI and UX, I gained valuable insights into designing innovative, user-centric products that blend cutting-edge technology with intuitive design. ​ I continue to push my design boundaries through projects such as Mayo Clinic’s AI-powered interface for healthcare physicians and Arizona Water's chatbot redesign, always striving to create accessible, efficient, and engaging experiences for users. ## Work Experience ### UX Research Moderator @ Apple Jan 2026 – Present | United States Contract via INSPYR Solutions ### Founding UX Designer @ Clinician Clone Jan 2025 – Jan 2026 | New York City Metropolitan Area I created and put in place a full design system, which included our branding, all the user interface parts, and a new logo that the team chose to use.
