Good design leads to user trust.
š Iām Brenda, a multi-disciplinary Product Design Manager in San Francisco. For the past decade, design has been both a career & hobby.
Currently at Microsoft, I lead our Payments & Rewards design teams, working on new consumer experiences.
Previously at Yelp, I managed the CoreX team in shaping on-boarding and profile setup for business owners. At United Airlines, I helped design core products and launched the Animal Travel team.
In my spare time, I make pottery goods and travel with my life partner. Curious by nature, I love connecting with others & uncovering hidden quirks.
