Google / YouTube UX Design Internship
What
In the summer of 2017 I was a UX design intern for YouTube’s visioning team. The visioning team is an internal consulting group made up of designers, researchers/strategists, and project managers who work with different teams to craft a future vision for their product.
Contributions
As an intern, I researched, designed, and prototyped a more approachable and valuable experience for high-profile creators on the platform.
Leadership
During my summer at Google I also worked on a 20% project with the YouTube VR team, designed 3D printed jewelry for top creator Poppy, and planned and led a digital sketching workshop for the UX team.
Digital Sketching Workshop
Digital sketching has become a valuable part of my workflow as a designer. I planned and led a digital sketching workshop for the Youtube UX team. In this workshop we covered valuable applications for design sketching in industry, tricks and tips for making communicative and engaging sketches, and a live storyboard demo using the iPad Pro and Procreate.
