Jack Leng

Hello! I'm an interactive designer who uses code, animation, drawing, and 3d to create lively digital experiences. It's my goal to do this with a diverse team that's working on the real problems of underserved communities.
Sendbloom
Oct '16 — Feb '18
At this small sales software company, I built workflows for salespeople to contact prospects en masse, cope with the resulting data, and collaborate to build better pitches.
Some components I made in a Storybook >

I couldn't include it all because we didn't start focusing on functional, self-contained components until later on.

Origami Logic
Dec '15 — Aug '16
As a designer at this analytics company, I created widgets for web dashboards, wrote specs for engineers, and optimized existing features for marketing teams trying to monitor their performance.
I'd been at Jut just before as a design technologist, but that company folded a month after I joined - making this effectively my first "post-school" job. William Ngan was an amazing boss who helped me learn the ropes of UX design, gave me interesting projects, and encouraged me to be creative.
SESEME
Jun '13 — Oct '15
An interactive installation combining IoT/robotics and a webapp, SESEME is a speculative public monument intended to engage and enthrall a community with its own issues.

An interactive 7' 3d bar graph with a companion webapp that makes sense of it, SESEME stands for Social Energy Sensing Monument and was my passion project for 2.5 years.

Miscellaneous
Mostly pre-2015
Assorted volunteer, freelance and student projects from long ago - animation, graphic design, and a little interactive.
Thanks for visiting my site! I’m currently looking for work and new projects -- feel free to contact me:

I love basketball, building furniture, and bicycling about town. i've been in the SF bay area my whole life (minus 7 years in sunny Davis, CA) and rent in Oakland, currently.
