Jia Gu, design dude

giphy-1

I'm a product designer and UX researcher specializing in civic service and human-centered design.

As an advocate for design with a purpose, I believe that design should never work in a vacuum — that research, user experience, and development should all be integral parts of the design process. I am always looking for new opportunities to create and collaborate on design solutions that support community-building.

I've been lucky enough to work with a diverse number of clients ranging from global corporations, such as Lego and State Street, to government entities, such as the United States Geological Survey and California DMV, to smaller organizations, such as Midwest Access Coalition and Social Good Guides. I am currently employed at Login.gov, where I lead design on a team that works on fraud protections and account management.

In my off time, I enjoy riding my bike, reading tarot cards, and watching trash tv.
