Final Takeaways

Final Takeaways

Final Takeaways

During my internship at Google on the YouTube Search team, I led UX design and strategy of two completely new, Generative Media experience for 140M+ of Ask YouTubeโ€™s users - intended to fill in content gaps within the YouTube corpus.

With it, I led moderated UX Research and coded fully functional prototypes to live demo to YouTube Search VPs, the YouTube UX Director, and a 200+ cross-functional audience across various meetings.

I learned so much about myself as a designer and from the more senior UX Designers at YouTube! <3


Key Learnings:

  • Coding with AI (API, IDE, Gemini)

  • Navigating ambiguity

  • Designing at scale
