About Julie
Hello, I'm Julie!
As the Head of Product Design at Product Hunt, I led a talented team of designers who created simple and accessible experiences that helped startups and people discover and launch over 260K new products. With over 15 years of experience in design and product strategy, I am passionate about solving problems, imagining new product opportunities, and empowering users.
Before joining Product Hunt, I led design at Dailymotion and Deezer. I also founded an independent design studio that has helped companies like ARTE, Bien'ici, GitBook, and SigFox with their UX, brand, and product needs.
Outside of work, I mentor women in design through Hexagon UX, offer extensive product reviews, and write a newsletter for solo and founding designers. I have two BFA degrees in Graphic and Motion Design and Interactive Design and Visual Communications. I continued my professional education by studying Product Strategy at Regorge and Communication at Stanford GSB Executive Education.
