About Me

Marie Zhang

Product designer specializing in AI tools with experience building tools for nonprofits and hospitality.

My CPA background makes me thrive on constraints and question the "why" behind decisions. I'm a problem solver who works well in complex systems.

In my free time, I enjoy taking advantage of the incredible SF weather, sampling local ice cream flavors, and watching reality tv with friends.
