I oversee Product Design, UX Writing, and UX Research at Figma, and helped grow the team here from 3 to 60+ amazingly talented people so far (and we're still hiring! http://figma.com/careers). We build modern design tools on the web to help people collaborate visually. It's truly a dream job making creative tools with so many thoughtful people and such a vibrant supportive community. ✨Before Figma, I led design teams at ClassPass in NYC and Google in Mountain View. I also spent some time teaching designers to code as an advisor at Framer, and building a digital assistant for Astronauts at NASA. I studied Human-Computer Interaction at Carnegie Mellon and I'm from Pittsburgh originally.I also do some angel investing and consulting, particularly focused on helping companies better understand and leverage the unique gifts design has to offer.
Listed skills include Contextual Inquiry, Human Computer Interaction, Heuristic Evaluation, User Interface Design, and 7 others.
