Hey y’all! Can we get an #introductions thread going? (Also, search doesn’t work for posts so I couldn’t scroll far back to see if any was created) There’s many new and familiar faces, and it’s cool to see so many great types of designers all together. Share some stuff!
Aha! Cracked it! Hey fam 👋🏽! I’m Amy, a Brooklyn-based Product Designer working at Amp, a funky new live radio app by Amazon Music 🎙
I used to work in the music industry before pivoting to design (I was one of those “new pandemic new me” people 🥴), and now work at the intersection of the two, which is pretty neat!
In my free time I love to dabble with side projects (like creating an online community for underrepresented designers), traveling, and powerlifting 🏋🏽♀️ let’s be pals! ✨
This makes me want to get back into lifting but I hate my gym. NYC gyms are kinda awful.
Oof yes they leave much to be desired for sure, but some commercial ones get the job done (I go to Grindhouse), and the lifting ones are truly chefs kiss (so many in BK we can go to together when you’re ready to re-dip your toes 💪🏽)
