About me

Multi-Passionate Product Designer 👩‍💻🩷 / Rockstar Collaborator 🎸

Hi, I'm Janet Gonzales (she/her). I'm a UX Designer, originally from New York, now spending most of my time in Salt Lake City, Utah and Portland, Oregon.

I got my start working for Start Studio designing for Silicon Slopes startups, and now I am a Freelance UX Designer and Senior Designer at NICE on their Illuminate AI team.

I thrive on learning new technology and helping startups succeed. Prior to my start as a UX Designer, I worked in finance (Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, UBS, Fidelity), and also studied entrepreneurship (MBA). I love talking business, strategy + design!

In my spare time I enjoy traveling, figure skating, volunteering as Marketing Director of AIGA Portland, and taking on freelance projects.
