A Survivor's Guide to UX with Jeanine Zheng @EverBright: I Have a Confession to Make I'm an Israeli guy who watched the American Survivor show. When I discovered that my favorite cast member from Season 43, Jeanine Zheng, is a product designer, I set a goal in mind: to interview her about her journey and inspire others. She told me how so many people reached out to her after the show, asking her about UX and what it's all about. I couldn't be more grateful for the fact that she said yes and agreed to be on the Writers in Tech podcast. Today, Jeanine is changing the world one step at a time as a product designer at EverBright. This new residential solar financing provider is dramatically simplifying the process with faster, more flexible, more affordable options for homeowners.
