Background

About Jen S.

With over 15 years of experience, I'm a passionate and skilled design leader who specializes in creating beautiful, yet practical solutions for the interactive environment. I've worked on a wide range of platforms including mobile, desktop, web, TV, kiosk, and home appliances, and have a deep understanding of users' needs, current trends, and emerging technology. As a Co-Founder of SOLV, a boutique design agency in San Francisco, I had the opportunity to work with tech giants like Google, ServiceNow, Salesforce, Airbnb, and exciting startups like Molekule, Credit.com, and Intercom to design product solutions from the ground up. My most recent role was with Mahana Therapeutics, joining as their first designer and ultimately assuming the role of Principal Designer on a full-time basis. My primary focus was on designing a groundbreaking CBT digital treatment app for four chronic conditions. Mahana for IBS, their flagship product, proudly stands as the fourth digital therapeutic app authorized by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Throughout my career, I've discovered that my true passion lies in working with mission-driven companies that embrace a forward-thinking approach. I thrive in collaborative teams that genuinely care about understanding and empathizing with users, driven by a shared sense of purpose and enthusiasm to create a product experience that truly makes a difference.
