Hi! I'm Steph.

understand.
I am a Senior Product Designer at BNY, where I navigate unfamiliar domains and intricate workflows to make bankers' work a little easier, one workflow at a time.

A little more about me.

I’ve spent a lot of my life figuring out unfamiliar things. When I moved to the U.S. during high school, I had to navigate a new culture while learning a new language. That experience sparked my fascination with design - and its ability to make complex ideas easier to understand and engage with.

I still approach design in much the same way: learning unfamiliar systems, asking lots of questions, and making complicated information easier to understand.

When I'm not designing, you'll probably find me…
