The Advocate

Jen Enrique

</figcaption>

Jen Enrique is a Staff Product Designer at Slack. With over 14 years experience, she has worked at agencies, startups, and big companies. Today, she champions building design culture and teaching designers how to self-advocate at work. As a 2nd generation child of immigrants, she had to learn how to navigate corporate cultures without insider expertise or formal mentors. In the last year, she has parlayed that experience into mentoring 100+ designers.

In this episode, we talk about starting and formalizing design community work at Slack, going through the interview circuit, finding balance through travel, and so much more.
