About Me
Nice to meet you! I’m Jessica.
I drive value by building stellar products that users love.
As a Senior Product Designer at Corporate Finance Institute, the #1 rated online provider of finance education, I led design initiatives to improve the user experience for over 2.8 million students. Check out my favorite project: Learning Recommendations, a dynamic recommendation system to provide learners with customized guidance.
Before that, I developed new B2B/B2C features and product enhancements as a UI/UX Designer at EnterpriseAlumni, which powers the alumni networks of the world’s largest organizations. An impactful project I worked on was Integration Center, a sophisticated B2B tool that empowers alumni management teams to configure their own integrations.
To further my education and strengthen my skillset, I am now pursuing my M.S. in Human Centered Design and Engineering at the University of Washington where I will dive deeper into the intersection between emerging technologies and the people who use them.
At UC Berkeley, I received a BA in Cognitive Science: the interdisciplinary study of the mind. My background in cognition has given me a deep sense of empathy which allows me to excel in human centered design.
I recently returned to the US after traveling the world with my husband! Following years of discussion and months of meticulous planning, we set off on a life-changing trip to experience new places and cultures. We traveled through 43 countries across all 7 continents!
