Hi, I'm Michelle.

I'm a collaboration-loving, research-oriented product designer working on Canvas.

Formerly designing employee tools at REI Co-op and on the innovation team at AT&T's in-house design studio.

I design not just for alleviating discomfort, but for maximizing happiness, exploring joyful moments and happy places as much as pain points.

Here's some of my work
