Hi, I'm Cindy!

I'm a product and experience designer based in New York.

I’m a lifelong explorer, learner, and listener. I’m excited about creating experiences that hit the sweet spot of meaningful, beautiful, and thoughtful.

I’m currently a senior UX designer at Niantic. At various points in my life, I have been a senior UX designer at Wondersauce, a UX designer at teamLab in Tokyo and a strategist / designer at Google in the San Francisco Bay Area. I received my master's in product design at Stanford University and my bachelor's in industrial engineering at Columbia University.

Fun facts: I’ve visited over 60 countries, all 50 states, and half of the beautiful national parks in the US. I collect Japanese Kit-Kat flavors -- or more like I eat them before I collect them. I have completed the New York Times crossword every day for the past 2 years. I love pretzels. I'd love to learn more about you!

My resume is here. You can email me at me@cindyzhang.net.
