About Lauren Celenza
I’m a product and visual designer, writer, and speaker based in Seattle, with work featured in Fast Company, Forbes, and The New York Times.As a designer, I’ve led launches with Google, Adobe, Code for America, and the World Resources Institute—designing tools for inclusive maps, accessible content creation, equitable tax systems, and land restoration. Currently, I’m a Staff Designer at Adobe, focusing on enterprise collaboration and GenAI for Adobe Express.Throughout my career, my design work has made millions of addresses, routes, and businesses visible for the first time in Google Maps history, returned over $90 million in tax refunds in the US, and increased funding for reforestation across South America and Africa. I’ve spoken and taught on design and storytelling worldwide, connecting with leaders, designers, and writers from over 40 countries.As a writer, I’m the author of \"Tech Without Losing Your Soul,\" a newsletter and interview series blending personal essay and reporting to examine tech’s power on daily life, burnout culture, and how to live and build with AI without surrendering our humanity or sense of reality. I’ve also moderated live events and panels for UNFINISHED Festival in Europe and The Skin Deep, an Emmy Award-winning YouTube series.
