About me

Here's the short version. My name is Mike Gorrell, and I'm currently helping shape the future of work on the AI team at Asana. Previously I was working as a Product Designer at Twitter where I was helping create innovative Ad Formats that provided real value for both consumers and adverisers. In my role, I daily collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, user research, engineering, data science, and other designers across our company to create consensus and solve complex design problems. I'm a great presenter and storyteller, and am comfortable presenting my work up and down our entire org chart, while creating space for myself and others to give and collect actionable feedback.


Outside of design, you can usually find me camping, geeking out about personal finance, taking way too long to make my coffee in the morning, or more recently trying out my new tenkara fly fishing rod or taking mediocre pictures on my 35mm film camera.
