I had the pleasure of working with Zoey at McAfee where she thoughtfully created new approaches to address existing pain points related to cross-platform experiences and notification management. Her positive attitude and willingness to collaborate facilitated the creation of clear design hypotheses and high-fidelity prototypes that were leveraged during customer interviews.

I worked with Zoey on many key product design projects during her time at McAfee. Her enthusiasm, innovative ideas, attention to detail and team spirit was exceptional. Moreover, I personally learned a lot from Zoey as she showed me the ropes on a lot of the processes and design standards here at McAfee. She is still very much missed by all of us here on the design team.

Having worked closely with Zoey over multiple projects, I can confidently say she's an exceptional collaborator. Zoey's rapid learning, strategic thinking, and consistent commitment shine through consistently. For instance, during our Microsoft capstone project, she mastered motion design in just a week and effectively taught it to our team, expediting our progress. Zoey's proactive approach and steadfast determination make her a standout team member.

I'm a researcher-turned-designer and recent graduate in Human Centered Design and Engineering from the University of Washington.
I'm always learning. Right now, I'm reading Articulating Design Decisions by Tom Greever and honing my prototyping skills in Framer.
In my free time, you'll find me playing soccer, going to the gym, or playing with my puppy.
