Shokai Sinclair

Thoughtful UX design helps teams generate revolutionary ideas — from how we organize to the products we build. I have worked on a variety of causes including environmental conservation, philanthropy, health care, visual arts, and the performing arts. My expertise in marketing and UX design allows me to apply big-picture thinking and cutting-edge user research to the products and experiences I design. More at https://airloom.space
