Bio
Maya Elise Joseph-Goteiner
Katrina untangles ambiguous problems with grace and can translate technical concepts for any audience. In Area 120, Katrina gravitated towards the most complex domains such as augmented analytics and VR. Partnering with founders, Katrina’s influence went beyond what’s expected of a researcher. Insights didn’t just influence features, the product experience, and the roadmap. Katrina played a pivotal role in developing a product strategy. Value propositions, positioning, and GTM plans were informed or tuned because of Katrina’s leadership. Beyond Google, Katrina has inspired the next generation of UXers through designing and mounting a program with the Black Venture Capital Consortium (BVCC). I watched Katrina in action, teaching a few of the 10 modules to HBCU students and Katrina is dynamic. Katrina brought the same passion, sharpness, and innovation to the classroom as seen in read-outs, design workshops, and leadership meetings.
