Hi again!

You can call me JZ from here on out…

fun fact: I entered my Figjam drawing of a Platypus in a Figma contest and won Figma swag! You can check it out on my IG

I’m a dynamic Product Designer who is passionate about creating impactful designs informed by data and user research.

I work relentlessly to understand people’s behavior so that I can design intuitive and joyful experiences. My passion for design derives from the need to know the “why?” and “how?” about everything which has led me to have a creative and purposeful approach to solving challenging problems. Which isn’t very surprising given my Biology/Chemistry background. We science nerds love asking questions!

On my free time, I like to squash new PR’s at the gym, sing and dance out loud, watercolor, and snuggled with my two senior dogs, all while sipping on iced coffee, maybe a protein shake (:
