ELIZABETH W. SAYEN
San Francisco-based Product Designer with a keen interest in products that provide community connection, lead to in-person experiences, improve efficiency/communication and rethinking solutions for unnecessarily complex systems.
What I believe:
Transparency and communication are foundational
The more diversity the better
Show ‘your mess’ early and often
Embrace and pay attention to necessary pivots

HOLISTICO
Connecting eco-friendly consumers with businesses —recommendations, rewards, events and a supportive community.
With a team of six UX designers, we followed our research and trends, while sharpening our focus on the lack of trusted resources and community in the sustainability ecosystem. Holistico aims to serve as a connection and resource for the brands, businesses and consumers who want to find and support one another.
FITMATE
An all-in-one business platform for independent fitness trainers.
Our team recognized that excessive time on administrative and marketing tasks were taking time away from trainers focusing on client needs and increasing their capacity. We set out to help them stay competitive and support their growing businesses.
ADLINGO AT GOOGLE
Display ads transformed into conversational brand portals.
We reimagined standard one-click static display ads by connecting companies and their target customers in engaging, personal, and immersive in-ad chat experiences. Year one we found PMF. Year two we refined and tackled tools for scaling. Year three we increased capacity, expanded verticals, and we were acquired.
GREEN HEART
Unsold produce delivered to underserved communities by on-demand volunteers.
Working with two other UX Designers, we set out to bring healthy food options to communities in need that often lack access to produce that is nutritious, affordable, and easily accessible.
We hypothesized we could find a way to do this at little to no cost, while maximizing the benefit for everyone involved.
