About Me

My name is Katherine Kusuda, and I’m a product design leader based in Southern California.

I enjoy growing organizations and building design systems, strategies, intuitive user experiences and the design team necessary in making all of that possible. My expertise spans the space between design, product strategy, and development. I approach new challenges with the desire to learn, grow, and iterate.

My career has covered aerospace, stock media discovery, and EdTech, providing a wide array of opportunities and experiences across design disciplines and industries. I have led the creation of next-generation platforms that are used daily by over 40 million users, and I’m passionate about improving and innovating under-appreciated experiences.

For fun I like skiing, illustrating, traveling, and when I can, making steady progress on the graphic novel I’m co-writing with my brother.
