Emma Sheridan, Pomona ’21<\/strong><\/p>\nEver since my introduction to design thinking at the Claremont College\u2019s The Hive (Pomona \u201921), I’ve been captivated by its adaptability and transformative power across diverse fields. Throughout my career, I’ve harnessed this versatile toolkit to integrate design thinking principles into product management, driving the creation of impactful products and fostering collaborative, engaged teams. Currently, I\u2019m a product manager at Microsoft building digital experiences for our commercial customers to manage their Microsoft 365 subscriptions through the admin center. When I\u2019m away from the computer, I enjoy reading fiction, traveling to new places for inspiration, and moving my body with yoga, cycling, weights, or a neighborhood walk.<\/p>\n
August Cosinuke, Pomona ’23<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nI graduated from Pomona in May, 2023. I front-loaded a major in Philosophy, Politics, & Economics and spent my last few semesters studying design at the Hive and elsewhere. My thesis was an ethical analysis of gamification in the workplace \u00ad\u2013 basically,\u00a0are we harming people by designing their workplaces to improve their productivity?<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0I spent my free time leading outdoor trips with OTL, playing ultimate frisbee on the Claremont Braineaters, and commissioning intramural baseball.<\/p>\nNowadays, I am a User Experience Designer and Researcher at EO, a clinical cannabis health-tech startup. My job is to figure out how we can improve our patients\u2019 experiences using eo products and services. I do a lot of user interviews and test many prototypes. Lastly, I am obsessed with board games, am pro sticky notes, and live in Chinatown, Manhattan.<\/p>\n
