MODERATOR MARISA CHENTAKUL, PRODUCT DESIGNER BASED IN SEATTLE | FOUNDER OF MESH I started my career in Apparel Design and found my way into the tech industry. A creator at heart, I got into Product Design because of its ability to have a positive impact at scale. With my background in Fashion, I naturally gravitate towards topics like commerce, wearable tech, and emerging technology. Beyond work and Mesh, I also co-founded Design Picnic, a community to kickstart your design career, and Uplift Locally, a platform that promotes small local businesses. |
