Hi, my name is Jen! I’m currently working remotely as the Senior Product Design Lead at Adopt a Pet by Kinship, where I love being able to combine my design work with my passion for animals. My philosophy to design combines a user-centered product approach with a strong and appealing visual language. I strongly believe in the process of testing and iteration.
I came to the Bay Area from NYC to work as the Design Lead and Product Manager at a San Francisco startup focused on photojournalism. In New York, I cut my teeth at agencies like Jack Morton and @Radical.Media, working with clients like Mastercard, Chipotle and MTV; subsequently, I co-founded a small design studio in New York City, helping small businesses and startups to tell their brand stories.

She is extremely bright and enterprising — I’ve seen her step up to fulfill roles well outside her comfort zone and gracefully master new software and workflows, making it all look easy. She has the rare ability to see both the big picture and the most granular details needed to execute.
I am currently not taking on new projects, but I am always open to connecting with awesome people and chat ideas or future gigs.
When I’m not working on helping shelter and rescue pets find forever homes, you can find me in a zany yoga pose, trying out yet another vegan oatmeal cookie recipe, or tending to one of my 30+ houseplants. Oh, and being a cat mom. (I promise I’m not a crazy cat lady…shhhh.)
