Emily Egan

My friends would probably describe me as a funny, analytical person. I have a passion for social good, volunteer work, and having a positive impact. Professionally I'm a designer with a deep technical background with over 10 years of experience—most of that in startups and B2B SaaS companies. I focus on delivering responsive, accessible designs that solve pain points.
