I'm Jackie, a Hamburg-based product designer.

I create tools that connect people with information.

a writer

Here are some examples of how I work.

I make complex data easy to use.

As a product designer at PLUS online tutoring, I transformed complex tutor performance data into a reliable, automated source of truth for tutor supervisors.
The supervisors consistently reported higher satisfaction compared to prior tutor assessment tools.

I find surprising ideas that work.

I designed and developed Drafty, a writing tool that hides text as you type to prevent over-editing.
Hundreds of writers have used Drafty to create everything from manuscripts, to resumes, to diaries.

I get disparate teams to agree and ship, even through conflict.

As a UX designer at Yaluna Design, I helped a client launch a major new AI product on schedule by negotiating conflicting needs from engineers, researchers, and leadership.
