Vanessa Lo

Product Designer

I'm a product designer with a Master's in HCI + Design from UW.

Before I designed products, I spent years in Research Ops at SaaS companies in the productivity and collaboration space, building the infrastructure that helped research actually reach product teams.

I went back to school to turn that systems thinking into design. Now I build products from research to final UI, with the whole system in view.
