Hi! I’m Jessie 👋🏼

After studying accounting at Santa Clara and spending years in tax departments at companies like Chegg and Seagate — even earning my CPA in 2019 — I realized I was drawn less to the numbers and more to the systems behind them.

That curiosity led me to UX design. Two design programs and three and a half years at Switchfly later, I'm the sole designer for a complex, high-traffic travel platform — serving six product teams while championing user-centered design across the organization.

Outside of work, you can find me…
