About me

↗ Resume

My name is Elizabeth! I'm a product designer and educator with over a decade of experience.

I'm currently building an alternative design school starting with ↗ The Art of Visual Design (Elizabeth's Version). Previously, I worked at companies like Khan Academy, Primer, and Lambda School.

Outside of design, I love talking about Alexander McQueen, judging people's reading lists, and playing classical saxophone.
