Hi! Iโm Meg, a Brooklyn-based product designer.
Design philosophy
As an art history student turned product designer, I am fascinated by the capacity of design, the built world, and digital interface to shape human behaviors, perceptions, and emotions. By employing thoughtful user research and making informed design decisions, I aim to harness this power (of good design!) to solve real problems for real people. I believe in designing ethically and empathetically: a well-designed product not only drives business but also prioritizes user needs and wellbeing.
Experience
I currently work as Lead Product Designer at Northwestern Mutual. My previous roles at Northwestern Mutual include Senior Product Designer and Product Designer.
Before working for NM, I worked in UX design and strategy at Ceros, a content creation platform for marketers, where I solved problems for clients across a wide range of industries. Some examples include: Deloitte, McKesson, McAfee, and Bank of the West. Prior to that, I was an Associate UX Designer at Critical Mass.
For fun :)
