About Joe Gonzalez

Throughout my industrial design career at both frog Design and Tomorrow Lab, I\'ve had the privilege of nurturing innovative ideas and turning them into impactful realities. I’m passionate about using design and technology to enhance lives. I\'m particularly drawn to products that seamlessly weave into people\'s daily routines, garnering their love over time.That passion extends to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion through design education. Sharing this knowledge will make the profession more representative of the diverse populations it serves and global problems it hopes to solve. These efforts include creating frog Innovators Workshop and Bronx Innovators’ Workshop. Additionally, I developed Tomorrow Lab’s educational YouTube series series and contributed to Advanced Design and Futureworks Incubator.
