About Julie Kim

Senior Product Designer at Slack

Currently on Slack's growth team. Before Slack, I worked for five years on data analytics products as both a designer and researcher.

I have experience with transitioning into design from another profession (data analysis) as well as creating design communities from scratch.

I love supporting other traditionally underrepresented groups, especially Asian women designers, as I know these groups don't often have the resources of a network that others might. I want these groups to be able to get the roles that they deserve so that they're in the right rooms to provide diverse perspectives.
