hi, i'm annika
About me
Senior product designer
Previously @ Zoom Communications, Inc.
With 5+ years of experience across startup and corporate teams, I help turn complex product challenges into clear, intuitive experiences. My strength lies in systems thinking: connecting features, workflows, and platforms so experiences feel cohesive, from the overall structure to the smallest interaction.
I bring a thoughtful perspective to product direction, exploring new possibilities while staying grounded in what people need. Working closely with product and engineering, I help teams navigate ambiguity, align on priorities, and translate ideas into focused, practical design.
📍 Currently based in Tokyo, Japan 🇯🇵
🌟 Open to opportunities in Japan or the U.S.
I design DIGITAL EXPERIENCES by focusing on clarity, speed and craft
