Sunita Miranda | easyread.tech
With over 20 years of experience in Communications, Media and Marketing, Sunita has worked in a variety of sectors, with her favourite being Human Services, specifically disability, multicultural and the community sector. Sunita is passionate about diversity, inclusion and access, and tries to improve on these outcomes through each of the service deliverables that she is charged with. Sunita’s journey saw her arrive in South Australia with her husband two decades ago, and over the years, she’s established herself nationally as a business leader within multicultural and disability communications.
Specialising in these areas has meant that Sunita and her team have developed creative campaigns communicating important public messaging and executed these at a federal level.
Sunita founded easyread.tech in 2023 to meet a gap in the market when it came to creating beautiful and effective accessible resources for people with intellectual disability, cognitive decline, and those with low literacy. In Australia, there are very limited relevant images available for use within accessible resources relating to disability, cultural diversity, and other societal intersectionalities. Easyread.tech has created a collection of over 800 original illustrations for use within accessible resources, including a recent First Nations collection.
Easyread.tech uses its creative agency background to create beautiful Easy Read and Plain English resources so that the person receiving this information comprehends what is being communicated to them.
Easyread.tech employs people with disability and works with people that are represented in their illustrations to ensure that their illustrations are crafted with careful consideration. In what is a first for South Australia, easyread.tech is a bold vision that has come to life, thanks to a skilled and talented local team that lives and breathes accessibility.
