About annie

Product Designer at Apple

I’m an AI Product Designer. My work focuses on creating meaningful, long-term value for people while supporting sustainable business growth. Previously, I led UX across experiences such as Gemini and Skillshop, helping diverse audiences create, connect, and thrive through technology.

Before Apple, I led design teams at Google and worked with startups and growing companies to build products and design teams from the ground up. I’ve worked across Consumer, Enterprise, B2B, B2C, and SaaS, with a focus on turning user needs and business goals into simple, meaningful product experiences.

I also help organizations build strong design teams and support UX professionals in growing their careers. As a UX leader, Product Designer, lecturer, and design thinker, I care deeply about people — both those who create products and those who use them.

I believe great design starts with empathy, but it becomes valuable when it creates real impact for people and the business.
