Our UX director for Core products, Amy Thibodeau, has taken a winding path career path. Starting in arts organizations and then becoming an early member of Facebook's content strategy team, then starting at Shopify as a discipline lead before quickly leading a cross-disciplinary project (the launch of our Polaris design system) to becoming a cross-functional leader.
