October 2025 in New York
Hi, I'm Annie.
Currently building AI products at Google, focusing on fashion try-on and image generation. With a background in behavioral science, my work explores how people make decisions with new AI tools.
I write Soft Patterns, a newsletter on design and technology, tracing the longer arc of why certain ideas, products, and designs last. I also advise at the Google for Startups Accelerator.
