About

I design for the attention people actually have.

I'm Siana Altiise, a learning designer and researcher trained in behavioral psychology and anthropology, with 8+ years across AI, enterprise technology, and immersive training.

Why Sonari

More information was never the answer.

I live with synesthesia and misophonia, so I've paid close attention to how environments shape focus for most of my life. That curiosity became my research, and it became my approach to learning design.

Across programs at Meta, the MACH Alliance, and UnoMundi, I kept seeing the same pattern: organizations investing in more content when their people needed less, delivered more clearly.

Sonari Learning applies the Sonari Method, my framework for how conditions shape attention and attention shapes performance, to the way organizations teach.
