How does being queer inform your work?

I’m always told that product designers need to have empathy for our users and what challenges they might face. I feel like being a queer woman of color gives me an extra boost of empathy since I’m already more thoughtful and aware of real-life issues than someone else may be.

What are your favorite pieces of queer visual culture?

Can I say Rina Sawayama’s sense of fashion? Because her looks are unreal.

Which other queer people inspire you?

Lena Waithe, Rina Sawayama, Shantell Martin, Kehlani, and my friends!
