Nice to e-meet you, and thank you for taking the time to review my application. Below is a bit about my background, and a curated list of projects that I believe are suited for this role.
My name is Jenn, I’m a Canadian user experience designer based in New York and Miami. I specialize in the creator economy, e-commerce, and fintech, and my design background is in motion graphics and experience strategy.
For the past 1.5 years, I've been building product for the creator economy and Gen-Z. After 7 years of working with fashion brands, I found a new purpose: building tools for creators to become their own entrepreneurs. As I embarked on this 2 year journey, I’ve built everything from dashboards, store fronts, admin portals, marketplaces, and even a job platform, all for creators. I’m passionate about the future of creative entrepreneurship, and helping creators reach their full potential.
Lead Product Designer
Emcee Studios, 2023
Emcee Studios is a social commerce platform that helps creators monetize their content through storefronts and affiliate marketing. During my time there, I worked on the creator experience and innovation team, where I worked on an admin portal to manage and create content, analytics, customer orders, marketplace to purchase items to post, and proposed new strategies to help the company move towards their Northstar. Additionally, I led the UI redesign of the company design system.
Product Design Consultant
Night Ventures, 2023
Night Ventures is a startup incubator started by Night Media, the managing company of Mr. Beast. I worked on a stealth product called Vouch, which is a job application system for creators to build their teams.
Lead Product Designer
Genies, 2022
Genies is an avatar technology company. Creators have the ability to make their own digital wearables (NFTs), and sell them on The Warehouse (the marketplace). As the design lead on The Warehouse, I worked on search, PDP enhancements, checkout on the Flow blockchain, and more.
Sr. Product Designer
Fast Checkout, 2022
Fast was a start up building a one-click checkout solution, think of Shop Pay, but e-commerce platform agnostic (ie. Woocommerce, Squarespace, Salesforce). The Creator platform was a new arm of the business, and I built a 0-1 dashboard for affiliate marketing. Users could track orders, analytics, and generate unique links, and a Fast Checkout button to embed into their content.
I am a mental health advocate, design mentor, daily affirmation enthusiast, runner, and techno lover.
I love giving back to the design community through mentorship and participation in events. Most recently, I was the UX Design Judge for York University's hackathon. I also do lectures at Brainstation, where I give students (especially those who are switching careers) a real glimpse of what it's like being a user experience designer... everyday challenges and all :).
