Hello, I’m Niki!

I build product experiences as a Lead Product Designer (Experience Design Manager) at the EY Design Studio in NYC.

Before my life in product design, I was a Consultant at EY in my hometown of Vancouver, Canada, focusing on tech transformation and customer experience projects.

My values

I am tenacious about driving human centricity. I love working with teams that foster ambition, curiosity, and belonging, to create meaningful and impactful experiences to users and society as a whole.

What brings me joy as a Designer

  • Getting into a flow state when analyzing and unravelling user problems

  • Creating micro-moments of delight through the subtleties of visual and interaction design

  • Spending quality time getting to know my team members, creating an environment based on shared knowledge and understanding, and working from a human centered lens

OUTSIDE OF WORK

I am a mentor on adplist.org where I attended 27 sessions (500 minutes) and counting. I mentor students and professionals on looking to break into UX.

I volunteer weekly with Sant'Egidio, to help alleviate poverty and feed the homeless in New York City.

I prioritize health and wellness by organizing fitness classes with my colleagues. I also directed our first national health and wellness yoga event where 40+ people joined in person, and more online across the USA.

OUTSIDE OF DESIGN

I love art and photography, am a certified mat Pilates instructor and tennis enthusiast, and make (and eat) a mean matcha 🍵!
