About Leah Anton
Product Designer at The New York Times
Hi there! I'm a product designer at The New York Times, and was previously at LinkedIn. I love to meet other designers and students. Feel free to set up time to chat, whether you want to learn more about design, need advice on a project, your portfolio—however I can be helpful.
Ideas for things we can talk about: what do product designers do? making a portfolio when you don't have real work experience presenting your work and interviewing transitioning from school to "the real world"
Outside of work, you can find me singing with my choir, struggling to play piano, drawing and painting, learning languages, and lovingly poking fun at fellow San Franciscans.
