About
Hi! I’m Courtney Yingling (she/her), a Senior Product Designer at Udacity.
My work combines a background in graphic design, web design, and entertainment with technology and user-centered design thinking. I’m currently leading design for the enterprise product at Udacity (EdTech). During my time at PlayStation, I worked on PlayStation Vue (B2C) and PlayStation Partners (B2B) service tools with teams across the globe.
I’m an advocate for diversity and inclusion; I’ve acted as lead organizer for Women in Tech Sony and PlayStation Women of UX Design employee resource groups. I was a co-facilitator of the A11y and Inclusive Design Speaker Series for the PlayStation UX Design team and strive to make all products I work on inclusive and accessible.
My experience spans a variety of industries, including education, gaming, streaming television, e-commerce, consumer goods, entertainment, finance, and private equity. Before transitioning to design, I coordinated TV shows, events, and marketing roadshows for entertainment and financial institutions.
When not working, I enjoy travel, foodie adventures, the arts, thunderstorms, and good books. I’m passionate about diversity & inclusion, ethical design, product accessibility, public interest and civic tech, service design, mindfulness, tacos, and pie.
